0:00.0 | Hello everybody and welcome to the mindful kind. |
0:07.5 | I'm your host, Rachel Cable, and I'm here to share insights into my mindfulness journey |
0:12.3 | and inspire you to create your own. |
0:14.9 | Each week, this podcast will bring fresh and exciting news about mindfulness, |
0:19.7 | from my personal experiences to useful tools and different |
0:23.6 | mindful techniques. |
0:32.5 | Hello and welcome to episode 122 of the Mindful Kind podcast and the final episode of the open-mindedness |
0:39.6 | miniseries. I've absolutely loved exploring this topic and I hope you've also enjoyed learning more |

1:33.9 | when judgments do come up. I know for me I can be super self-critical and patronising towards myself |
1:40.8 | when I'm facing doing something I don't feel very confident in. I think this is a |
1:45.7 | really important area where we can practice open-mindedness because not only does it help us become |
1:50.7 | more mindful and less judgmental, but we can also become more able to make mistakes without |
1:57.3 | beating ourselves up and we can get used to exploring outside our comfort zones. |
