\"\"I have been told these words at least three times in my life\u2026.\u201dKarin, you need to Be<\/em> more, and Do<\/em> less!\u201d\u00a0<\/a> \u201cStop doing<\/em> all the time, and just relax.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cDo you ever slow down and just be<\/em>?\u201d\u00a0 I think I make people nervous with all of the doing. It\u2019s sorta like a busy, buzzing bee all around you\u2026annoying, but productive!\u00a0 at the same time\u2026<\/p>\n

I feel like this is a conflicting message in our society.\u00a0 A society that reinforces “doing” for sure. The more you do: \u00a0the more money you\u2019ll make, the more time you\u2019ll have later on for this or that, the more, the more, the more. When is “Enough?” Do you ever get to “Enough?” \u00a0I have this friend in California that created a business called \u201cSign of Enough\u201d\u2026.a business built on identifying “when is enough\u2026well enough?” Figuring out your limits of your time, your material world, your energy\u2026<\/p>\n

When will you know it\u2019s all “enough?”<\/p>\n

So I take in the concept of enough, and I take in the concept of “being” more and I feel drawn to setting some limits on my own fast-paced life.\u00a0 I feel the peace that comes with the stillness I achieve in meditation.\u00a0 I experience the beauty of being with my kids on the couch and just hanging out doing nothing but talking and laughing.\u00a0 I realize my potential to connect with greater depth to a friend when we just talk and don\u2019t “do” anything or go anywhere.\u00a0 With less<\/em>, there is perhaps more<\/em>\u2026.more connection, more time, more depth, more love, more living.<\/p>\n

This way of being appeals to me. It will be a constant practice for me for sure.\u00a0 What is possible when the mind stills and the body relaxes?<\/p>\n

Everything is possible.<\/p>\n

Anything is possible.<\/p>\n

Maybe, just maybe, I already have “Enough!<\/em>”<\/p>\n
