Daily Divine: Getting past bored.

10/31/2016

 
​By now, you know I frequent talk about how important it is to slow down.
 
To pare the schedule down.
To get rid of the distraction of busyness.
To stop running around, and simply Stop. Right. Where. You. Are.
 
One of the interesting thing that happens when we first start to slow down like this, when we first start to try it on as spiritual practice, is that we find slowness unbearable.
 
It’s as if we’ve been eating sugar every hour, and suddenly we give up sugar.
And we eat a carrot.
 
And of course the craving for the sugar, for the addiction, for the distraction, for the sense of busy-means-I’m-doing-something really takes us on a ride.

We feel antsy, we feel bored, we feel less than, we feel exhausted… as if once we stop moving, we can’t ever start up again.
 
If you’re in a personal detox from distraction, take heart. The feelings of utter exhaustion, numbness, flatness, flatness will go away soon. Once the addiction to busy-ness gets out of your system, you’ll start to move to a new groove.
 
Time will lose all meaning for you.
You’ll pay attention to the easy things.
You’ll chop wood, carry water.
You’ll chop wood, carry water some more.
 
And pretty soon you’ll find that the simple stuff is just as fascinating and far more interesting than all the distractions you used to do because you thought you were supposed to.
 
There is more peace and ease in heading outside for a mind-clearing walk, than in all the meetings and activities you can think of.
 
There is more beauty and grace in simply hanging out, than in all the non-stop schedules you can think of.
 
We think we’ll get bored if we stop doing stuff.
We have FOMO.
We think we’ll stop existing, if we aren’t in constant motion.
 
But once you get the addiction to busy out of your system… you find that by doing less, you exist more.

Much love, 
SARA
