The presenter speaks about mindfulness meditation but also speaks more specifically about two very important parts of that practice.
1) Be mindful of your body
2) Be mindful of your thoughts
When meditating, or even just taking a moment throughout the day to ground oneself (in reality and in the moment), it's best practice to take a mental inventory of both of these things. I often pause to ask myself, "How am I doing physically? Are any parts of my body uncomfortable? What can I do to relieve discomfort or use another part of my body to reduce the burden for the rest of the day? Is my physical condition affecting my mood?" Doing a similar practice to see what thoughts I am carrying with me or circling back around to throughout the day is equally important and helpful.
This video was a great reminder to be consistent and use the practices daily for the best result.
