When was the last time you truly did nothing—no phone, no to-do list, no distractions? In a world that rewards constant doing, stillness can feel foreign, even uncomfortable. But if you're feeling overwhelmed, foggy, or stretched thin, the space you're avoiding might be exactly what's necessary. In this episode, we'll explore why doing nothing isn't indulgent, it's essential.   In this episode, you will learn: Why "doing nothing" is deeply healing for your brain and body How constant stimulation is silently draining your clarity, creativity, and energy Simple ways to reclaim small pockets of stillness in your day (even when your inner critic says "doing nothing" feels lazy or wrong)   Sources: https://scottbarrykaufman.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Christoff-et-al.-2016.pdf https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/psychology/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2019.00722/full https://www.health.harvard.edu/mind-and-mood/a-20-minute-nature-break-relieves-stress https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10400419.2014.901073?journalCode=hcrj20 https://www.denverartmuseum.org/en/exhibitions/georgia-okeeffe-new-mexico https://www.who.int/news/item/17-05-2021-long-working-hours-increasing-deaths-from-heart-disease-and-stroke-who-ilo   ——————— Calmly Coping is a self-improvement podcast for high achievers who struggle with high-functioning anxiety to help you feel more calm, balanced, and confident from within. ———————   🎓 Free 3-day Course: How To Calm Your Mind So You Can Finally Relax: https://calmlycoping.com/relax   💬 Submit a message, question, or suggestion to the podcast: https://calmlycoping.com/message ———————   Want more?   👩🏽‍💻 Work with me: My mission is to help you decrease your anxiety, declutter your mind, and say hello to a life of calm and balance.  Learn more about my coaching, therapy, and course offerings here: https://becalmwithtati.com/work-with-me   👥 Join the Calmly Coping Group: The free supportive community for high-achievers with high-functioning anxiety.
