#25: 5 Easy Ways To Slow Down Your Fast Life


Listen Later

I was reading the book "The Parent You Want To Be" and it made me stop and think:

Am I really making time for what's important to me?  Even then, how can I make the time?

In this episode, I share 5 ways to slow down your busy life.  Some of them are added activities, and others are "subtracted" activities.  But either way, one of them is sure to get you started on slowing down your life to let you focus on your priorities.

1.Make homemade bread from scratch.  We did it, and here's it how it turned out.

2.If you commute, turn off the radio.  Listen to the silence.

3.Play a board game or a card game.

4.Go on a walk.

 

While these activities may seem unrelated at first glance, they all have one common factor: prolonged focus on one activity, instead of the usual back-and-forth we do with our attention.

Question: What tips do you have for slowing down your life?  Leave your comment in the comments section below.
