Start meditation: Enjoyment
This meditation is by Dr Elizabeth English of Cambridge University Mindfulness Society.
If you're finding it hard to enjoy things, why not try living ‘organically’? It's a tip for times you feel weighed down by work that you don't quite get round to; a dragging feeling that lingers with you even in your downtime. Put yourself on organic time.
Check in with yourself each moment and ask: What do I really want to do now? What is it that’s really wanted in this moment? You might think this is a licence to laziness.
But you can trust yourself: your deeper self knows what is needed for work and play. By allowing your energies to flow, you’re more likely to do both effectively.
