Description
In the face of burnout, lack of passion, and endless to-do lists, what if to achieve more you need to do less? "There's too much at stake not to slow down," shares Qi Gong master Lee Holden. "By slowing down, you will gain time, energy, focus, and clarity." The idea that slowing down can lead to more productivity may sound too good to be true, but research confirms it does this and more - if only we can figure out a way to apply it in our everyday lives.
In this transformative guide, Holden shares The Slow Method, principles of slow mind, body, and relationships drawn from the philosophical wisdom of Eastern meditation, martial arts, and philosophies, and merged with Western science. The resulting practices offer ways for accessing the magical benefits of slowing down to create lasting change in your life and the lives of those you love.
Whether you're practicing primal shaking or gratitude meditation for the mind; vagal breathing, optimal digestion acupressure, or in-the-moment nature methods for body; or heartful self-connection, conscious communication, or sexual reflexology for relationships, you're learning the power of slow. With small, incremental changes, you'll develop a comprehensive understanding of how to slow down and increasingly embrace life's rhythms along the way as you cultivate and absorb the life-giving energy that we're all in dire need of.
