Balance is something that I have been working on for years...many years. The most difficult thing for me to balance in my life is relaxation. I have a hard time after a great, long school year...to just sit.
Sitting is so important. I do meditate which is really intentional sitting, but to actually just sit. No guilt. No "I should be doing..." No multi-tasking. Just sitting.
I am not a fan of TV unless it is educational TV while I eat or Football ( not American, but soccer). I am excited for the World cup to begin in two weeks.
I have my lists of things to do. I have my major writing lists of essential things to get out this summer. I have some things that I want to build. I have a lot competing with just sitting.
My plan, as I have learned in meditation, is to be intentional. Literally make the time and schedule in time to sit without guilt. Just be. Then- I know I will not be lazily wasting time while I know that time is set aside for Not Sitting, but being productive.
Let's give it a go.
Be Mindful.
Peace.
