I should have mentioned that too.... I'm really clothing or uniform habituated, back to when I was a hospital staff nurse & had to literally put on a uniform for the role, at home I put on special clothes for both painting & gardening that really differentiate things for me, and so too the gi.
But I do think that in any garment, just as one enters the kitchen ready to cook or the office ready to work, being mindful and present means being ready for whatever one is going to do.
