428: How to stop rushing! Why are you rushing?

Get Merry

Do you find yourself rushing from one errand to the next? Rushing from when you wake up to when you fall in a heap on the couch? Want to stop rushing? Tune in to this Get Merry episode!

Carla describes it as being a chicken, where she gets Denny to sleep and runs around the house ticking off the to-do list. Sounds familiar?

This is what we spoke about during the episode

• Constant rushing pushes your nervous system into overdrive. When you're rushing, you're putting your body and your mind into a stress response.
• Awareness and shifting up your routine can create more happiness and more ease.
• When you're rushing, do you even get things done faster?
• Yoga, Pilates and meditation are not only for your body, but they're also a workout for your mind and presence.
• Being organised also helps. Write down stuff on a list, on a whiteboard or on a notebook.
• If you can spare 5 minutes of your busy day to practice your presence through meditation and doing breathwork exercises help you become more present. Guided meditations inside our MerryBody app are perfect for you.
