On Purpose with Jay Shetty

7 Habits to Be Present When Everything Feels Like It’s Moving Too Quickly (Busy People Listen Now)


Listen Later

How can you recognize when you need to slow down?

And what are the benefits of slowing down in everyday life?

Today, Jay addresses the growing concern about how to slow down in our fast-paced world. Many of us feel like time is flying by, and Jay offers practical tips to help us feel more present and in control. 

Jay recommends connecting with ourselves, looking at our schedule, and reaching out to loved ones. By waking up 20 minutes earlier than needed, this small change can set a calm tone for the day. And there is power in silence and spending time in nature. Silence helps reduce our brain's cognitive load, and being in nature makes us feel more present and less rushed.

Throughout the episode, Jay provides easy-to-follow advice to help us slow down and enjoy life more fully, reminding us that slowing down is about being more present, not doing less.

In this episode, you'll learn:

How to slow down time

How to change your daily habits

How to plan for your day

These small changes can make a big difference in how you experience time. Remember, there's more to life than increasing its speed. Let's slow down together and savor every moment.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty
