We are chronically sped up.
Our minds.
Our bodies.
Our actions.
Every bit of us is running to
do more
be more
experience more
And the funny thing about it is
as we slow down,
not speed up
we experience the "more"
More joy.
More peace.
More connection.
More possibility.
Put down the to do list
Before you enter into the weekend, ignore the pull to...
📄 catch up on work
🧹 get chores done
🎊 pack more "fun" into your weekend
Put down "go, go, go" energy for half a second.
Choose one of these 3 things
Find something enjoyable to smell.
Take 2 second to feel the food in your mouth.
Find something comforting to look at and make it prominent.
Seriously.
That's it.
Choose one of the three.
It will serve you -
and those around you
Slow down long enough to be
more present to who you're with right at this moment
better able to listen to the person giving you the gift of their time
full in your own cup before filling another's
I promise, slowing down gives you
richer relationships
increased calm
deeper connection
The simplest strategies make the biggest impact.
