Stillness.

Описание: Brooklyn-based yoga instructor Divya reminds us that pausing is productive 🌱. In her own words:

"Being still in the modern world is easier said than done.

Hustle culture has positioned the idea of 'doing less' as equal to 'relaxation,' meaning it’s something to be earned. It convinces us that being still is the most unproductive thing we can do and that we should avoid it at all costs. Stillness exposes us to our own discernment, to the possibility that we don’t need to follow the crowd, and to the opportunity to sit in discomfort.

We’re programmed to be ON all the time. It makes us feel safe because being swept up in the current is safer than floating in the vast, open, unknown sea – right?

Not really…

Pausing allows life to catch up to us and course correct where we were steering in the wrong direction. It allows us to sense the current and once again set off on the right path for us. It lets us rise with the currents and leads us to destinations far grander than what we could have ever dreamed of.

My season of pausing has done more for me than any season of grinding ever has.

And now, big things are coming ✨

How has pausing helped you regain your peace and find your path?"
