Not an easy thing to do if you've got kids off on school holidays or you're working most of the time. But just how do you find stillness in your day or week? ⠀ ⠀ First thing in the morning on a sunny day, when the birds are out and everyone else in the family is still asleep, I like to take my coffee outside and just sit and be. Harder to do if it's cold or raining outside though. Then I just stare out of the window watching the rain. ⠀ ⠀ These moments of stillness allow our minds to wander and can improve creativity. So can being bored apparently. So don't worry if your kids are bored at some point in the day. Just let them be bored and know that you're helping improve their creative thinking in the long run. ⠀ ⠀ Doing mundane tasks such as folding laundry, polishing shoes (does anyone do that anymore?), watering plants, hanging out washing... they all allow our brains to rest and that counts as stillness especially if the rest of your day is bonkers crazy. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #findstillness...
