Mindfulness mode 92. So I believe that we show our vulnerability and our humanism a lot more than is publicly perceived.

Reach new heights of calm, focus, and happiness on mindfulness mode with me, your host, Bruce Langford.

On mindfulness mode, we talk about how people from all walks of life have discovered mindfulness

and how it's impacted their lives to help them become more calm, focused, and happy.

okay mindful tribe let's get started I'm totally thrilled to have Darryl Miller on the line today.

Hey, Daryl, are you in mindfulness mode? I sure am, Bruce.

That's great. Daryl Miller, not his real name, is an undercover police officer working in the field of weapons and gangs.

In the past, Daryl has served in peacekeeping

missions in Bosnia, has been a police officer in a large city, has received regular training

to prepare him for any danger he may encounter. Needless to say, he faces challenging, high-risk

situations on a regular basis.

Darrell uses his mindfulness skills to stay calm, focused, and to remain as grounded as he

possibly can, even when he's facing imminent danger.

So, Darrell, I'm wondering, what is it about policing that attracted you to this career?

Well, Bruce, policing, I believe, is a calling, much like teaching or nursing or fields of that nature, helping professions.

And I was always called to policing ever since I was a young boy.

And what do you remember about that?

What part of policing made you really want to do that?
