Slowing down and do nothing is sometimes just what we need! :)

Thanks for capturing such realization through your words, Harneek!

Really enjoyed your poem today. It's the first newsletter of my day and what a beautiful message to slow down. It's easy to get lost in the hustle (it's Wednesday today and my day job is operations!!) But I will remember your words as I move through the day. Thank you and I hope you have a lovely day 💖✨

Such a beautiful, simple poem that really speaks to the day to day life we all face! I too need to slow down amongst all the change I'm currently facing. Thank you for the mention too, I really appreciate it 💛💛

This is so beautifully put. There is always something. We can choose to execute our tasks on autopilot, or we can choose to be intentional with how we spend our time, & slow down.

I think a great life is a mix of both. 🧡

I have this slow day every weekend. I mark lots of things for the weekend over the work week and come Saturday, I just pick a couple of urgent to dos and put the list aside. It releases so much of unconscious stress.

I’ve pondering about this topic. I’m on holiday at the moment and when I come home, I’m wondering how to manage all the conflicting “to-dos”. So this is timely. Thank you.
