Interesting, well-presented and usefulI had an all-day tiring but successful mediation last week and adopted many of these strategies sub-consciously, but good to hear them properly articulated and "named". Will assist in future mediations. Presenter very natural and the video clips were short, explained psychological concepts in "easy to grasp" language and used every-day, relatable examples.
