Why do nothing?
Because it gives you a chance to think about what you _really_ must be doing instead of what you were doing that led to wanting to calm the mind by doing nothing.
And what were you doing that made the mind "empty calorie"-style busy?
Usually getting lost in youtube videos or social media doomscrolling.
- baxtr 2y agoLove it! One minor improvement idea: get rid of the timer during the nothing phase. I looked at it all the time. You could show the timer once someone starts scrolling again.
- malux85 2y agoYeah this was me too, I found myself fixated on the timer, then I started computing factors of the numbers in my head, then I realised I just failed at doing nothing :<
- Crystalin 2y agoYou didn't fail. You succeeded...Doing nothing mostly means letting your mind go wherever it wants to. Counting the time (seconds on a clock) is a good way to start doing nothing
