Let Yourself Monotask

We’re a society of multitaskers—and while it’s sometimes helpful, it’s a stress relief for our minds when we focus on just one thing at a time. Today, we practice quieting our multitasking minds and focusing on the present moment. Voiced by Mel Chanté.

Takeaways:
1- Our brains aren’t meant to multitask all the time.
2- Monotasking means we give our full attention to one task at a time—and allow the many thoughts in our minds to settle too.
3- Try giving your full attention to one thing today to reduce feelings of stress and really savor that activity.
