Brief Introduction
What it Means, Why it's good, How to do itDescription
“Slowing Down” means a couple of things right off the bat:
Less Rushing.
More Intentional Breaths and Noticing of the Present Moment.
Fewer obligations.
Doesn’t sound too bad, does it? This practice is founded on the principle that every breath counts, so even spending one breath per day not rushing is a total win. Two breaths is great, too, but I believe one is enough to get everything started. One intentional breath per day - feeling the breath in your body. It’s like a powerful magnet and will build capacity to slow down, which builds health and resilience in the body.
Please consider driving without brakes. It would be dangerous and terrifying. And I sortof feel that is what modern life feels like for a lot of us. Constant expectation of growth and achievement. If you’re caught in the web its sticky and you’re just exhausted... Slowing Down in a Busy World will help you keep your brakes in top working order so that your activity doesn't make you crash!
