Logically it cannot be inferred that any tool that teaches mindfulness is Aikido.
Straw man argument since that inference was never asserted in Mary's post.

Nor can it be inferred that application of mindfulness, which can be learned via a variety of tools, is an application of Aikido.
The fact that mindfulness can be learned via a variety of tools is irrelevant. In Mary's case it was learned via Aikido study and is applied to situations in daily life as a direct result of that practice.
