Zen in Everyday Life


In this edition of Videos For Thought I would like you to view the following video by T&H Inspiration and Motivation.

Featuring a speech by Alan Watts who covers how we can turn everyday mundane tasks into something fun just be reframing how we do them. In his example he discusses how we can turn something as simple as washing dishes from a laborious chore into something that helps keep us grounded in the moment instead of becoming frustrated or angry about the task.

Take a moment to think about this quote from the video and how you might be able to apply it during your own life.

“In our culture we make an extremely rigid division between work and play… and this is the most ridiculous division of things. Because everything we do however tough it is, however strenuous, can be turned into the same kind of play”

Alan Watts
