My guest today, Karen Pina, is a passionate author, coach, and teacher on a mission to share a message about creating the space we need to just be. With 15 published books under her belt, Karen has a mountain of knowledge and experience to share. As a former HR professional, she experienced firsthand the challenges of constantly being in "doing" mode and the impact it had on her well-being. Karen's journey led her to an involuntary sabbatical. After the 10th time cleaning the fixing her surroundings to avoid boredom, she finally leaned in and worked at just being.
The resources mentioned in this episode are:
- Reflect on your identity and shift from being a human doing to a spirit being.
- Recognize the costs of constant distraction, such as lack of authentic relationships and decreased creativity.
- Prioritize alone time, even in small increments, to refresh and maintain your mental health.
- Create space in your daily routine and larger schedule for moments of pure being without distractions.
- Engage in disciplines that stimulate creativity and promote a sense of being, such as meditation or journaling.
- Try using the phrase "Will this mater when I'm 80?".
And so much more!
