Ever notice how much you truely see when you actually slow down?
This weekend, try moving a little slower throughout your day.
When we rush, our mind stays switched on and alert. Slowing down helps your nervous system settle and brings your awareness back to the present moment.
Suddenly you notice the trees reaching tall in the sky above, the details of a flower, or the warmth of the sun on your skin.
The next time you’re waiting in line, sitting at a red light, or waiting for someone to meet up for coffee, observe everything that’s around you, it’s also a great alternative instead of reaching for your phone.
For me, nature and my breath have always been the way that I bring myself back to the moment I’m in. In yoga philosophy, the breath (prana) anchors us to the presence, while awareness (drishti) helps steady the mind and bring us back to the now 🌿
