Applying calming and focusing techniques at work are an effective tool for helping to focus and for lowering one's stress. It sounds like not only are you able to prevent your resilience from been drained, but you are generating more of it!

The point you brought up about the spontaneity being needed and if it takes away from being human was fascinating. I hadn't thought about the negatives that could emerge from constant mindfulness. I sometimes get caught up in over analyzing my behaviors, but reading this book kept me engrossed so I was fortunate in this respect. Personally, I think I will need to place at least some attention on my motives when applying the authors' techniques.
