I call this technique
Slow Down You Move Too Fast
With the internet and the fast pace of jobs and social media and ALL the frenzy that can attack us in a week how about CARVING out time for slowing down?
Pick from many ideas to slow down to let your mind unwind. It is all about balance
- gardening
- ride a bike or horse
- paint
- listen to music
- read
- go to the lake, ocean, mountains, walk around, hike
- quiet meal with someone at a restaurant
- call someone up or visit them and just endless chat
- take a country drive somewhere "off the beaten path"
- rest in a hammock when the weather is warm
Millions of ideas of "something quiet" to do......
I think it will spring clean cleanse your soul and you will be better to able to attack and deal with the frenzy when your return from your mini vacation. A key to this SLOW DOWN idea is to have NO DEADLINES, no goals to achieve - JUST BE in the moment.
Simon & Garfunkel, the musicians I think were way ahead of their time with Sound of Silence and this SLOW DOWN YOU MOVE TOO FAST thought in the 60's. It is needed NOW more than EVER.... to keep yourself FEELING GROOVY.
