272: How to Do Nothing and Be Okay With It


Listen Later

Do you ever find a few spare minutes in your day or week to just sit quietly and do nothing — no phone, no book, no distractions at all? If that idea makes you a little uncomfortable, you're definitely not alone, and this episode is for you.

We're diving into what it really means to pause, quiet your mind, and simply let yourself be — especially if your life usually feels like it's moving at full speed. We'll explore why our modern version of downtime doesn't always feel restorative, how spending time in nature can help you settle, and why allowing yourself to do nothing might be exactly what your mind and body need.

If the thought of stillness makes you squirm, feel guilty, or seems impossible, stick around — you might be surprised at how much learning to slow down can transform your sense of calm, clarity, and well-being.
