Welcome back to another episode of Jenni’s Uncensored Pennies. Today's topic is all about slowing down and being more present in our busy, chaotic lives. We've all experienced that overwhelming feeling of time whizzing by so fast it feels like New Year's Eve was just yesterday. Amidst this whirlwind, I've been trying to explore ways on how to slow down and savour the present.
Through discussions with my therapist and a lot of self-reflection, one solution I’ve found is to take time for oneself, disconnecting from the hypnotizing world of digital devices. In a world where we are always surrounded by technology, deliberately disconnecting can actually feel liberating. Spending quality time with family, friends, loved ones and savouring those moments contribute significantly to slowing our lives down. Moreover, the practice of mindfulness and meditation further aids in grounding us in the present.
An overlooked aspect which often accelerates our perception of time is our consumption of alcohol. While it's common to grab a beer after a gruelling week at work, it sometimes makes the weekend fly by. Reducing alcohol intake, especially during social gatherings, can help us remain more present and genuinely enjoy our time.
So here’s to slowing down and truly living in the present moment. After all, time will keep on ticking, and it's up to us to make the most of it. I hope this episode lends some beneficial insights. Feel free to reach out on my Instagram @dj_adam_herrera. Wishing everyone a great week ahead. Stay tuned for more enlightening conversations on Jenni’s Uncensored Pennies.
