What if you could slow down instantly, anywhere? You can do the exercise in this video in just 60 seconds, no matter where you are: at home, in the office, in the supermarket even! You can also do it any time of the day. It’s an easy way to recenter and slow down.
Often, we feel rushed because of our racing minds. Which is always busy ruminating about the past or projecting into the future. This exercise, however, forces you to get out of your head and become present, even if it’s just for one minute.
So I challenge you to try this slow living technique today. Use your four senses to take in your environment and notice how this practice slows you down. Even if it’s just for a moment.
