Mindshift Monday: The Art of Being Over Doing
So be, don't do, don't. The energy of doing is sort of like an illusion in a sense, right? You don't have to do things in such a way that you're putting yourself in a stress response where it's just like you gotta get this done and you're rushing around and this kind of stuff.
Ever feel like you’re constantly on the go, checking off tasks but never truly feeling satisfied? In this episode of Mindshift Monday, Matt Gardiner takes a refreshing look at the concept of 'being' rather than 'doing'. During a morning meditation, Matt found himself battling the relentless urge to get up and start ticking things off his to-do list. But instead of giving in, he decided to simply observe this energy and see where it led. What he discovered was eye-opening.
Matt realized that the constant drive to achieve can trap us in a cycle of stress and dissatisfaction. Instead, he advocates for a shift in mindset: explore rather than achieve, and respond rather than react. This episode is packed with practical advice on how to embrace a more mindful approach to life. If you’re tired of the hustle and looking for a way to find more joy in the journey, this one’s for you.
