Why are we very busy people?

ByAndrzej


Why are we very busy people? That's true for most of us, but let's consider what happens when that busyness pauses.  
What about those moments when we are not busy working?

I'm not referring to times at work when clients are waiting, and problems are accumulating, requiring complete focus and energy. 
However, there comes a time when we stop working, relax, and take a moment to analyze our days.
How does practicing meditation help restore our life energy at the end of the day? 
Could meditation be the key to staying energized, working effectively, and enjoying more free time?
This brings us to a simple truth: everything is mind; mind is everything. 
Everyone experiences a galloping thinking process: worrying, thinking about what's next, andpredicting only the worst outcome.  A lot of your life energy is wasted by the mind's uncontrolled activity.
Today I want to introduce a simple meditation, "Sitting well, doing nothing," which can help reclaim energy lost to mental activity. This form of meditation is simple; you'll need almost nothing to get started. 
Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and literally do nothing.
I challenge you: take just 5 minutes today to sit quietly with yourself. Commit to this moment of self-observation.  Don't try to do anything. No thinking, no fancy breathing
.You may have a chance encounter with yourself that you've never had before.
 Was that difficult to sit and not move? I wouldn't be surprised if you become aggravated and nervous. We are not accustomed to that situation; our minds and brains have no idea how to deal with it.
It is the first step toward controlling your unruly mind, restoring natural peace of mind. And use our energy fully

This a great chance to notice that nature is calling us to slow down, stay warm, spare life energy, and  enjoy the season. A big part of our life energy is busy maintaining body temperature and immunity  to keep us well. No wonder, another part of the winter experience is a lack of energy. What to do about it? Well, stay warm and comfortable.  Gather your family around the fireplace and  spend good day together. Appreciate how smart and grown the kids are. When was the last day home  in  your busy schedule? Eat food which makes you energizing, I believe every one of us now  how to create  and appreciate  comfort . Due to the lower level of life energy, personal" winter demons " easily emerge. Feelings of loneliness,  isolation, ...

  Sculptor     There was a huge rock, somewhere in the country huge enough too content a whole horse inside. And indeed, the beautiful horse was there living its life inside. All tired from loneliness. And, desperate to find a freedom, and companions. And there is a sculptor. Gifted with his hands, and intuition, able to see a Horse trapped in a rock. Able to free it yet so soft hearted. “Chipping out the pieces will cause so much pain to the Horse. Do I have a right to help him to break free knowing how much pain is involved?”   And the Horse inside thought; “I know it will be painful process to became whom I really am”. Am I ready to accept the price?   May be if they talk, they will find a common way . ............ Andrzej,s  Qigong  embrace all  physical, intellectual and emotional  aspects of life .
