Finding Balance: Lessons from Sloths

Sloths embody harmony and balance, suggesting a need to find equilibrium in life and avoid extremes. In society with so much noise and polarity, its essential for us to create our own balance and harmony. Take time today to sit in quiet, breathe, and tune in to yourself. Tune out the noise, and tune IN to YOU. Here are some suggestions on how to do this:

Distractions throw us off balance, so turn off notifications on your phone, especially social media and news alerts. I have 3 children, so my ringer is always on, but not notifications. If someone really needs to reach you – they will.

In a world full of noise it can be challenging to take time out to listen to our own intuition. Create a 3 – 5 minute “ME TIME” alarm. Just sit in silence and breathe. Do this 3 times a day if possible.

Name 3 things you are grateful for in your life. This exercise helps ground you. It brings you back to what really matters in our lives. If you can write it down in a journal, even better.

What other ways can you be slothy today to find balance and harmony?
