The Art Of No Plans

The art of no plans,

What does this mean? what does that look like?

I can’t help but wake up and want to do things, like shower and get dressed and make a smoothie, start a fire, vacuum, laundry etc. These are all distractions. My mind wonders how long do I need to do nothing?? What does that look like, me just laying in bed or watching a movie in my pj’s, or sitting in silence for an hour?

I hear- drop everything and you will know, just be

Then see what happens?

If you did nothing does that make you lazy? useless, wasteful, burden, drain?

Babies literally eat/ sleep/poop and we love them so so much, we don’t thin anything negative towards them. Why do we have these thoughts as adults towards adults?

If I was in a coma or had a disease where I was on bed rest and could do nothing, would I still be called lazy, a drain or a burden? Would people still love me?

The thing is, I am neither a baby or someone that is ill or in a coma. I am a healthy single 38 year old. I get to do things!

I am privileged to even have this experience. I know this.

So why have this calling to do nothing?

What I learned is, it is to help release patterns, to rest and stop the autopilot of life. To just be and know that I am still loved and most of all just be.

When you do this, you build a relationship with yourself. This helps you learn to do what is best for you. I have been cultivating a relationship with myself over the past few years and I want to help others do the same.
