Summary

Renowned mindfulness teacher Mark Coleman, founder of Awake in the Wild and The Mindfulness Institute, has led wilderness meditation retreats from Alaska to Peru. Coleman talks about making peace with our "judging thoughts" and how nature can "open the heart" and relieve stress, even if you're stuck on a cross-country flight and taking notice of the landscape below or just taking a moment to feel the wind on your face.

0:00.0	Well done. You've sorted through the embarrassment of riches that is the modern podcast landscape
0:09.8	and found me Rob Briden on my podcast. In this series of Briden and I talk to among
0:17.2	others Harry Hill, Ben Elton, Charlotte Church, Steve Cougan and Dame Harriet Walter.
0:23.9	And that's just a few. We tend to chat for about 45 minutes to an hour never longer.

1:24.1	So on the show this week we've got a renowned mindfulness teacher by the name of Mark Coleman

1:48.1	Before we get into that though, I just want to plug quickly that one of our previous
1:52.2	guests on this show, Orrin Sofr, who was back on podcast number 28, we've posted a new
1:59.9	course from Orrin on the 10% happier app. It's called Emotional Agility and it's really
