Is your to-do list stressing you out?
How often do you feel like you’re just trying to catch up?
Today, Jay dives deep into the power of slowing down—not as a luxury, but as a necessary life strategy. He walks us through eight actionable and science-backed steps to feel more present and connected to your day–no yoga mat, silent retreat, or drastic life change required. Whether it’s taking five-minute tech breaks, adding little rituals between tasks, focusing on one thing at a time, or even just adjusting your posture, each practice is a reminder that mindfulness isn’t something we need to schedule, it's something we can embody.
Jay reminds us that even the tiniest moments—like taking three deep breaths at a red light or saying your actions out loud—can pull us back into the present. Through real-life stories and powerful research, he shows how we can snap out of autopilot and find calm, clarity, and a sense of control, even on the busiest days.
In this episode, you'll learn:
How to Slow Down to Speed Up Your Day
How to Use Time Anchoring to Manage Stress and Anxiety
How to Transition Tasks with Micro-Rituals, Not Rush
How to Narrate Your Actions to Stay Present in the Moment
Whether you’re juggling back-to-back meetings, dealing with family chaos, or just craving a little peace, this episode is your gentle reminder to slow down, take a breath, and tap back into the calm that’s always been there—one mindful moment at a time.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty
