Listen "Appreciating Slothfulness"
Episode Synopsis
Sometimes I have an endless supply of energy. But there are also times when my mind is sluggish, not bright. Life feels exhausting or boring or blah. Does this happen for you? The good thing is, when I turn my attention to the blah feeling itself, my mind wakes up. I can see how sluggish I feel, but I can also see that it’s temporary, and even get interested in it, as yet another fascinating state of mind. When all of this happens, I also try to appreciate (with varying degrees of success)what the situation offers: a simple, powerful reminder to pay attention in each moment, even the slothful ones. That appreciation, when it’s available, along with the attention when it’s available, seems to brighten the whole mind.
