As an established leader or emerging leader in your organization, institution, or company, I am concerned about habits. We can understand and want to implement the dynamic God-given vision for our lives, but how are we moving in our daily lives? What are our priorities? What are our growth areas? Do you have an intentional, restorative space?
Creating a physical space where you intentionally read, pray, soak (be still) and create is vital for mental wellness. According to the research by Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, “resting the brain is anything but idle and that, far from being purposeless or unproductive, downtime is in fact essential to mental processes... Downtime is an opportunity for the brain to make sense of what it has recently learned, to surface fundamental unresolved tensions in our lives and to swivel its powers of reflection away from the external world toward itself.”
