2
00:00:06,780 --> 00:00:14,070
in our experience with greater openness, formal practices like yoga and meditation complement moments

3
00:00:14,070 --> 00:00:16,800
of mindfulness and our everyday activities.

If you're working on behavioral activation or changing your thoughts, mindfulness principles will be

6
00:00:31,770 --> 00:00:33,660
compatible with those practices.
