Have you ever been on vacation or to a place where you’ve had to unplug completely? By unplugging I’m referring to no email, no phone – that kind of unplugging. If you know what I’m talking about – how great did it feel?! Sure at first it was a little scary, but didn’t it feel fantastic to not have any emails to respond to, or voicemails to call back.
Well, recently Chad and I took our yearly pilgrimage up to Kripalu for the weekend (which is a MUST for those who haven’t been) and even though it was tough, we did our best to unplug and turn off. We decided to tune into our bodies, meditate as often as we could and fully relax our bodies and souls – the best perk is that doing this is great for the environment!
IT WAS AMAZING!
It was so great that we are now talking about taking one day a month out of our regular busy schedules to completely unplug. That’s one whole day on a regular basis that we fully enjoy each other’s company, no distractions etc. Since it’s getting warm out this will be pretty easy – it’s in the colder months that it might be more challenging – but we’ll cross that bridge when we get there 🙂
What do you think about this? Have you ever made a commitment like this? Would you ever consider trying it out? It might be so liberating and stress reducing that we’ll consider doing it more often! I’ll keep you all posted.
With gratitude, love and light,
Shira
