I know, it is quite hard to not look at your screens of laptops or mobile when the time and the situations of today demand for it. But have you ever imagined that how today’s technology and fast life is making us dumb and ignorant towards our “me time”?
To detox from your usual lifestyle, what we most often do is either we engross ourselves in another screen of televisions or some other multimedia option.
Sometimes it is ok to let go of that technology and shake hands with that real world that has always welcomed us. The word detox doesn’t only have to be in diets, it should be in our physical life as well. The act of detoxifying your body and soul isn’t costly. Instead, it will only cost your little time and patience, isn’t it amazing?
I am discussing with you few ways to enlighten our mind and body without depending upon the technology for a change and perform these activities whenever the inner peace is disturbed.
Walk-In Nature
Our body has this huge demand for a breath of fresh air which is hard to get in those small clustered offices or cubicles or our personal apartments. For a change, make a time to have a stroll in nature and let that fragrance of grass roll in. See the greenery to soothe your eyes, focus on the calmness and let your heart stop from pounding fast. Don’t you feel rejuvenating and refreshing even from the thought of it? Go out and make it happen, at least for the sake of your body that has pulled off this far.
Find Your Muse
Everyone has this thing that inspires them or brings a genuine smile to the face. Be it music or be in any form of dance. Put your dancing shoes and tap on the beats that were on your playlist earlier this morning. Sing that song which seemed challenging to you. Draw that art which you think is enough to make yourself proud and satisfied. Who said you cannot perform your passion along with your career.
Meet New People
If you are an ardent extrovert then you might know the joy of meeting with new people and hearing out their stories and experiences. Even if you are an introvert person, do not worry, you can go to meet your friends and known people who have been there by your side. Meeting people whether old or new will give you that courage and confidence. And will also let you declutter your mind from your daily havoc.
Become An Artist
Artist doesn’t have to mean here being drenched in colours and paints all around and creating a masterpiece for a showcase. Artist is a person who always experiments and gets creative over time despite being in any situation or field. Become an artist either by cooking differently than usual, or become an artist by trying clothes that match the inner you. Spur out that creative mind that is getting hogged by that technology.
We are never too old for practising the art of detoxification in our physical life. All we need is a little “me time” and patience to explore our inner self and get back to our demanding roles with ease.
