The Difference a Pause Can Make

Take a Moment Today ... 

“A pause gives you breathing space so listen to the whispers of the real you.”
~  Tara Estacaan 

I’ve been reading in books and hearing on podcasts and TED Talks that by simply pausing at certain times, we can improve our life.

Honestly, though? Can taking time to pause actually enhance my life? Can it make me happier, improve my relationships, and even re-wire my brain? Those are some pretty big claims for just stopping whatever I’m doing and breathing for a few seconds! I did a bit of research and I discovered three different significant times to pause:
•    In the morning and throughout the day to be intentional
•    During stress and/or conflict
•    At positive moments, to savour the good

The Pause for Intention:
"Every intention is a trigger for transformation."
~ Deepak Chopra

"Our intention creates our reality." 
~ Wayne Dyer

The Mindful Pause:
“Practice the pause. Pause before judging. Pause before assuming. Pause before accusing. Pause whenever you’re about to react harshly and you’ll avoid doing and saying things you’ll later regret.” 
~ Lori Deschene

The Pause to Savor:
“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.”
~ Albert Einstein

If you want to read more about the power of a pause, you can read about it in my recent article on Thrive Global. And if you want to watch a wonderful video by Rick Hanson about the neuroscience of behind The Pause to Savor, check out my latest blog post.

Parting Words 

“Pause.
Just pause. 
Nothing else.
And notice your experience. Notice what is there. In this moment.”

~ Peter Russell
