So one of course never knows what might have happened without mindfulness, but it's helped me live with a pretty difficult personality, my own. And when my wife Joanna had cancer from 2011 to 2016, cared for at the Royal Marsden, it helped her, I think. And it was very noticeable when nurses or porters or doctors, specialists came in, whether they were mindful. And the more mindful they were, the more it helped her. Now that could have been somebody coming round with the coffee trolley, or it could have been the oncologist. But if their minds are full of their last meeting or the next one, they will not be helping the patient as much as if they are present.
