Non-doing is an act of self-care

 Are you sitting on the edge of your seat while travelling to your destination?

Are you hurrying up to reach the aircraft door the moment it touches down?

Are you scurrying for the undo button as soon as you press send while emailing?

Are you getting anxious during the time between red light turning green at traffic signals?

Are you constantly checking off items on the to-do list?

You are in the same shoes as Maya and Mohan;  hard-working professionals, thriving on the demands of the job, juggling many things and staying connected 24/7 through their smart phones!

At first, you enjoy the sense of accomplishment, however, you notice the energy depleting faster than you could recharge it!

So, you feel constantly exhausted, stressed, and anxious as your mind is always racing so much that you dread downtime!

This nonstop activity leads to burnout and a sense of always being behind.

That’s when Maya and Mohan decided to try micro-practice a friend had mentioned.

Initially, it felt awkward and unproductive. But gradually they noticed subtle changes. They started feeling more relaxed, and their minds became clearer. And they began handling stressful situations more calmly.

Micro-practices create much needed little pauses every now and then recharging minds and bodies, leading to greater clarity, creativity, and overall well-being.

Now, Maya and Mohan do not rush towards the aircraft door before the air bridge is in place!

They do not click send before deselecting the reply all while emailing : )

Maya and Mohan now sit in a relaxed posture while travelling!

And they use the time at traffic signals for micro-practices!

In a world that constantly pushes us to do more, adopting non-doing is a radical act of self-care.

*****

Are you interested in coming out of stress, burnout, and anxious feelings like Maya and Mohan did?

I guide you to integrate micro-practices into your daily routines, those small changes yielding mega benefits. Blends with any culture, customs, and traditions.

Take a small pause and connect with me : )
