Cultivate moments of stillness in your day from "summary" of Do Nothing by Celeste Headlee
Find a few moments in your day to be still. This doesn't mean you have to meditate for hours or sit cross-legged on the floor. It simply means taking a few minutes to pause, breathe, and be present. You can do this while waiting in line at the grocery store, sitting in traffic, or even just sitting at your desk. Allow yourself to let go of the constant need to be busy and productive. Embrace these moments of stillness as a way to recharge and reset. It may feel uncomfortable at first, especially if you're used to always being on the go, but with practice, it will become more natural. By cultivating these moments of stillness, you give yourself the opportunity to quiet the noise of the outside world and listen to your own thoughts and feelings. You may discover insights or solutions to problems that have been eluding you. You may also find a sense of peace and calm that can help you navigate the chaos of your day with more clarity and focus. Remember, stillness doesn't have to be a luxury reserved for vacations or weekends. It can be integrated into your everyday life with just a few minutes here and there. So take a deep breath, let go of the need to constantly be doing something, and embrace the power of stillness in your day.
