Elaine MacDonaldHOST
And I'm just curious, what does practicing mindfulness look like in an everyday life? And I suppose, how does it differ from relaxation or meditation alone?

Iqbal HabibGUEST
And I think that's a very good question, you know, because when I brought mindfulness to one of my clients once, she was like, oh, no, no, no, that's not really for me.

Iqbal HabibGUEST
And I think I had to ask, like, what do you know about mindfulness? What's your understanding of mindfulness? And sometimes really working around these, I think mindfulness is a practice you can bring into any moment of our day.

Iqbal HabibGUEST
And I think an easy way to think about it is there's inner world mindfulness and outer world mindfulness.

Iqbal HabibGUEST
Inner world mindfulness is being aware of your own thoughts, emotions, body sensations, urges.

And Iqbal, I know you've volunteered it earlier, but maybe you might bring us through a mindfulness practice now, if that's okay for our listeners? Yeah, sure.
