Resting is an activity that we all think we know very well. But many people suffer from fatigue because resting is not just about going to bed every night to sleep. Almost everyone goes to classes to learn skills such as painting, writing, dancing. However, few of us know that recreational activities that affect all living spaces should also be developed with practical and correct information. On the contrary, rest is an action that we do not care much and easily discard. Rest is more than you've ever experienced. Let's take a closer look at it together.
Learn to relax physically and mentally
Movement is to the body what water is to a flower. Lying just for sleeping at night does not create enough rest for the body. To really rest, you have to move your body regularly. You can run, walk, play tennis. However, I recommend that you include yoga with all the physical exercises you do. Yoga helps you gain the strength and flexibility your body needs. However, yoga contributes to your mind and body integrity, making you feel much more fundamental.
Meditation is to the mind what shower is to the body. While resting your body with movement, do not neglect to relax your mind with regular meditation. When your mind is truly at rest, you can listen to life much more deeply and make more heartfelt connections.
By making movement and meditation regular in your life, you can experience the depths of rest that you may never have experienced before.
Follow the 80% -20% rule.
We have a strange belief that we will be happier if we work hard. I think this is one of the biggest lies of our age.
According to scientific research, the universe works with the rule of 80% to 20%. This rule, also known as the Pareto principle, roughly states that 80% of the effects for most events are generated by 20% of the factors. For example, 20% of sales make up 80% of earnings, or we wear 20% of our clothes 80% of our time.
Therefore, 80% of the time we spend constitutes 20% of the results, while 20% of our time constitutes 80% of the results. What we need to do is find that 20%, which constitutes 80% of the results we want, and stop doing the ineffective 80% that consumes our time while continuing to do it.
Doing is effective only when it comes from the state of being.
There are two types of doing. One of them is to do it because you are triggered by an external factor. In this state of doing, when the external factor that drives us to action disappears, the act of doing stops. For example, things we do because we are jealous of someone, what we pursue because of a fear, what we do because we compete with someone, or what you do because our manager has asked us. The other state of doing comes from inspiration, and the source of the energy that moves us is not outside but inside us. It is more like doing to exist. Doing to express ourselves.
The vast majority of people spend their lives in this state of doing, which I described first. He's doing business because someone gives him a job, maintains a marriage in which he's unhappy because he's afraid of being alone, or runs from one course to the next just to seem more successful. We need rest to be. Our actions that will arise out of being will be revealed only in this way.
Most of the time, we are enslaved by our desires. The gem cannot hit, we cannot restrain it, we cannot brake properly. He is the prisoner of human needs. It is he who rules our lives. We must control it, dominate it, but on the contrary, it is he who rules us. It is our desires and needs that we cannot prevent or resist.
Aristotle says the opposite alone. He states that what dominates our lives must reverse. He says do not be captive of your wishes. The servant says do not be slaves to them, do not submit to them, be captive to your main conscience. He says, be captive to his conscience so that he can have mercy, be just, love and count, share, feel pain in his heart.
Asking help from unconscious, can you get support? Can you expect it to pity you? Can you say that it does not torment, do not condemn us to hunger and poverty? You cannot expect anything from someone who has no conscience. You cannot expect anything on behalf of humanity, decency and morality.
It is conscience and good morals that move people. It is he who makes you personality and virtuous. It is he who cares for the affairs of others, that creates good feelings in you. Without it, neither your humanity nor your manhood will remain. You just become a person of pleasure and pleasure living for his world. You drink day after day. You live a good life. However, you will be unaware and deprived of real human values, you will live a meaningless life.
If our dream is to create a successful, happy, peaceful and fulfilled life, we should learn to rest more effectively and improve our resting skills with practice.
Hello there, I don't rest as much as I could sometimes, and that leaves me irritated. I can see how resting increases productivity. My problem with life is that either you have too much work or not enough, the balance of just the right amount is hard to find. lol Cheers
