Slow Down

And a restorative meditation to help with that.

Welcome back!

Please forgive me for keeping this short, but I am typing with just one hand. Last night I opened a window, and my left hand got in the way. It will all be fine eventually, but for today, typing is problematic.

Helen Frankenthaler, The Bay, 1963

We are more likely to injure ourselves when we are rushed or distracted. Importantly, we also may miss out on things our loved ones are saying to us, and the nuance of how they say them. The value of slowing down can’t be overstated.

In a society that feels constantly rushed and busy, slowing down is a superpower that will keep you safe and at ease. Practice building your ability to keep things at your own pace with the meditation below. It’s a good one!
