ROUTINEBREATHE
By Leo Babauta. One thing I’ve learned about myself in the last year or so is how much I shut down what I want. Somehow the world taught me that what I want is not acceptable, that I should only want what seems reasonable, doable, or won’t inconvenience others.

WHEN YOU'RE FEELING SELF-DOUBT & A LACK OF By Leo Babauta This morning I didn’t feel like doing anything. It’s a combination of overtiredness from a few days of hard work, and a lack of sleep last night. I couldn’t motivate myself to do anything important this morning, which is a rare thing for me.

THE RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME PRACTICE OF SURRENDERING By Leo Babauta Every day in this world is a shaky, uncertain, constantly changing landscape — and that causes us to try to get control.

I love talking about THE EVERYDAY MINDFULNESS PRACTICE OF DIRECT The practice of meditating on the breath is how this starts, of course: you stay with the direct experience of feeling your breath, in and out, the sensations of breathing your breath. Your mind wanders, you notice, you come back. If you like, you can label it “thinking” before you come back to the breath.

There’s an anxiety that many people feel when it comes to this question, on a fairly regular basis throughout the day. The secret to solving this problem is: 1) to learn to trust yourself; and. 2) let go of the worry. Both parts are important. I’ll show how to use a dailychecklist as
CREATING THE GENUINE CONNECTIONS WE LONG FOR Creating the Genuine Connections We Long For. By Leo Babauta. We all long for genuine human connections, and even in a busy life with lots of people around us, these genuine connections can be hard to find. We socialize online, but that’s not very genuine (why I quit Facebook ). We work with people, but often that’s task-oriented and not HOW TO DEVELOP AN AWESOME SENSE OF DIRECTION Form a mental map.

A GUIDE TO LETTING GO OF SHAME & FEAR By Leo Babauta Many of us are so often in a state of shame or fear that we often don’t realize they’re even there.

THE VOICE OF PATIENCE Post written by Leo Babauta. There are moments when other people just set you off, and you lose your patience. It is the downfall of many of us — coworkers, children, spouses, other drivers, irritating people on the subway — they can grate, they can anger. And it can ruin your day. You clench your EVA'S LIST: TRAVELING LIGHT FOR WOMEN By Leo Babauta and Eva Babauta.. When I wrote my 16 Essential Tips for Traveling with a Family a couple weeks ago, I had a ton of people ask the same thing: “I’d like to see Eva’s packing list!”. There’s an idea, it seems, that it’s much easier for a man to pack lightly than a woman. And while there’s some truth to that, I think it’s a matter of changing long-held ideas of what EMBRACE GROUNDLESSNESS: WHEN EVERYTHING SEEMS OUT OF Embrace Groundlessness: When Everything Seems Out of Control. “To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man’s-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again.” ~PemaChodron.

CREATE A MORE SPACIOUS LIFEBY LEO BABAUTA
Contemplating on how I want to live recently, I became clear in the last few months that I needed to create more space in my life. My life is full, which is a wonderful thing — I have lots of people in my life who care about me, want to spend time with me, want to workwith me. Amazing!
And yet, it’s become clear to me that in order to show up fully for everyone I’m serving … I need to also have space to replenish. Tofill up my tank.
So I set out to create that space. Here’s how it looks for me at the moment: * I’M TAKING DECEMBERS AND JUNES OFF, MOSTLY: I had to talk with all of my clients and shift my programs so that I could do this, but it’s happening! It also means I did a bunch of writing ahead of time. I am still doing some work, including creating a new course and setting intentions for 2021, but I’m not doing client calls, webinars or meetings. This month is the first time I’ve ever takenoff a full month!
* I CLEARED FRIDAYS, SATURDAYS & SUNDAYS: I used to have meetings on Fridays and Saturdays, but now I keep those days clear. I still do some work, but it’s much more spacious and I can take the days completely off if I feel like it. * I’M LEAVING THE OTHER DAYS MORE SPACIOUS AS WELL: I only do about 3 calls a day (down from 5-6 calls a day at my peak) and I don’t block off every hour anymore, so that I can have a greater sense ofspaciousness.
What do I do in those spaces? Anything I feel like! Here are some of my more common ways to use the space:* Rest
* Head out to nature & spend some time in solitude * Listen to a podcast* Read with my kids
* Hang with my wife
* Call my mom, grandma or siblings to catch up* Read a book
* Reflect on bigger picture stuff * Take care of chores * Write a book about my grandmother * Or do whatever work I feel like I’ve found that this kind of space is incredibly nurturing, replenishing, life-giving. And so few of us take it for ourselves. I know that not everyone has this kind of freedom, and I am grateful that I can do it. But I challenge you to see where you’re cutting this possibility off for yourself, and see if you could create it. It might take a few months to create, but if you stand for this possibility for yourself, you might surprise yourself.SEE ALL POSTS »
