Licence to… chill?

When someone says they meditate, what do you imagine them doing? Many of us picture someone in a lotus position listening to 'chillout' music. Not the sort of thing we associate with James Bond. However, there's both more - and less! - to meditation than this...

Quite simply, David had the wrong idea about meditation until a mental health crisis a couple of years ago forced him to learn.

Alex has been practising meditation for years. Here, he helps David unpick his remaining misconceptions.

Alex brings the meditation expertise, David brings the Bond links.

This is a fun one, which is also quite practical: Alex guides David through some meditation exercises live. Why not have a go at joining in?

You can watch episodes of On Our Minds Only? in any order. After this, you may also want to check out Alex's earlier appearances in episodes 002: COMBATTING ANXIETY and 008: WHAT'S KEEPING YOU AWAKE?
