Coding with mindfulness
By PyBites Team on 7 December 2022
Listen here:
Welcome back to the Pybites podcast. This week we have Andrew McLeod on the show to talk about mindfulness.
We talk about:
– Mindfulness as it applies to the tech industry and why it’s important to humanise tech.
– How mindfulness humanises.
– How to be more aware of different parts of the body – as opposed to only thought.
– The trap of trying to use mindfulness to fix problems that require action (eg mindfulness will make you aware you are hungry, it won’t resolve the issue)
– How mindfulness can help with emotional intelligence (including in the context of code reviewing).
– How mindfulness and emotional intelligence can help relating with peers and improve team performance.
Books:
– The Miracle Of Mindfulness
– Chief Joy Officer
– McMindfulness
Courses:
– MBSR course with certification
– MBSR course (without certification – free)
– A significantly longer course, both of these teachers are excellent
Other resources:
– The guy that ‘brought mindfulness to the west’
– Tara Brach’s work
– Mindful code reviews: part 1 and part 2
We hope you enjoy this episode!
