Throughout the day, you perform rote tasks.
Wash the dishes, fold the laundry, take out the trash.
Make copies, schedule a Zoom meeting, pour a cup of coffee.
On autopilot, these chores feel meh or burdensome. With presence they wake you up to life.
Choose one task today (just one!). Slow down your movements. Notice the details. Take a few deep breaths.
Turn a chore into a mindful pause.
Ordinary life can be quite extraordinary. (It’s where most of life happens!)
