Switch off from all those “urgent” e-mails, appointment reminders, to do lists, reports
Switch off from those “important” calls to receive and make
Switch off from Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn and all the rest
Switch off from the music, the radio and whatever other noise surrounds you
Switch off from other people and their busyness
Just Switch off and be yourself
Now switch on to yourself
Switch on to your breath; just breathe
Thinking ?
Switch back on to your breath and clear your mind
Keep breathing and be aware
Thinking again? That’s okay.
Switch back to your breathing
Switch on to your body and your feelings? Explore and discover!
Keep breathing and be aware
Done?
Now slowly switch yourself back on
What did you discover?
What did you learn?
How do you feel?
...consider carefully what else you need to switch back on and go
When will you next give yourself the time to switch off and explore?
