Well that's cool you got into mindfulness. I'm into it too. During a debate, if I notice the other person is getting upset and I recommend mindfulness, in my experience, that person rejects it. He or she is already in "disagree with everything studentrob says" mode

I find it odd and a bit ironic that the moment we identify someone who could benefit most from something like mindfulness can be a time when they're most likely to reject it. Perhaps this is the struggle of psychology and education in a nutshell. It's most useful when the student seeks it out.
