Welcome to this meditation about finding balance in time management.
Begin by finding a comfortable position.
Close your eyes if that feels right for you.
Take a deep breath in counting to four.
Hold for four and exhale for four.
Repeat this two more times,
Letting each exhale release any tension you're holding on to.
Inhale focus and exhale overwhelm.
Time management is hard,
Particularly when your brain gives you so much information all at once.
Remember,
Managing your time effectively is not about overburdening yourself,
Ticking everything off your to-do list at once and turning into a human doing.
No,
Time management is about finding balance.
Visualize a calm and organized space around you.
Focus your mind on what you can see,
Feel,
Hear.
In this space,
Just think about your most important and urgent tasks for the next hour.
Now think about the most important tasks and urgent tasks for today.
Notice what comes up as needing immediate attention and what can wait.
Picture yourself tackling one task at a time,
Mindfully,
With a clear and steady approach.
As you do,
Remind yourself that it's important to set boundaries and take breaks.
Balancing your workload also involves giving yourself permission and time to rest and recharge.
And recharge.
Quietly repeat to yourself.
Be you,
Belong.
Be you,
Belong.
Be you,
Belong.
Let this phrase remind you that you have the right to manage your time in a way that suits your needs and helps you thrive.
Take one last deep breath in,
Holding onto the clarity and focus you've cultivated.
Exhale slowly,
Feeling prepared to approach your tasks with a balanced and mindful perspective.
