So I would say that mindfulness allows me to put a separation between my emotions. So we're very emotional beings and sometimes we let emotions kind of override us and we think, oh, I'm feeling this way so this is all of my reality right now. I think what mindfulness really has this amazing capacity to do is to bring awareness to it, but then put a separation into it. So then you can look at it non-judgmentally and really say, hey, I'm feeling this way, you know, what does that mean or, hey, I'm feeling this way. And just let it, let it be. Thoughts on Breathing So I've been trying to meditate, I would say a good three years now and I'm excited to get to your book recommendations because I have a great book for you that I want you to actually read. And then I'd actually like to hear what you have to say about it after you read it. But I'm. So whenever you hear of mindfulness or meditation, the first thing that any kind of teacher has said is go to your breath. So I, in my personal experience, have found this to be incredibly easy. It refocuses you, it's always accessible and it just automatically calms me. One of the things that I do with breathing is I like to count to 10 or 20. When you breathe in, it's one breathe out. It's two. And so I normally go to either 10 or 20 and then restart it and I try to do that for a good five to 10 minutes.

0:08.2	look at it, non-judgmentally, and really say, huh, I'm feeling this way. Welcome. You're listening
0:18.0	to mindfulness mode. And I'm your host and mindfulness coach, Bruce Langford. Thanks for joining today. I always love hearing from you, Mindful Tribe. So if you don't mind, send me a message telling me a bit about yourself, what you like about the show. Email me, Bruce at mindfulness mode..com here's a note I received from elmar
0:42.0	yesterday morning I was so excited when I saw this email I really was because I have to tell you
0:48.8	man it's a little discouraging sometimes like sometimes there don't seem to be so many downloads.
0:56.7	Sometimes, well, there's just some stuff going on, you know, that I'm a little bit discouraged about.
1:02.1	But I saw this email and Elmar, wow, you just picked up my day so much.
1:09.9	And this is what Elmar said. He said, I'm a retinal surgeon,
1:16.4	and I live in Sao Paulo, Brazil. My routine is always very rushed between hospitals and
1:23.4	surgeries, but I always find time to listen to your podcast during the ride to the hospital.

2:16.3	And yeah, I'd love to visit Brazil.
2:18.9	I love it here in Canada, but I also love traveling, and I've never been to South America.
2:23.3	So like I said, this really made me feel better about things as I work through trying to get all these podcasts recorded and try to get as many uploads as possible
