Small Slow Life gadgets for big peace of mind
Breaking away from a hectic lifestyle and trying to get back to the slow, real rhythm of life can be a daunting task.
If you've spent years rushing and thinking endlessly, it's unlikely to be easy to become a present-focused, calm and enjoying the little things at the snap of your fingers.
Fortunately, there are many "aids" to make the return to the normal slow pace of life easier.
A browser add-on gives you computer-free minutes
There are various add-ons(widgets) for browsers that make the screen "freeze" over a period of time.
This will help you to look away from the screen more often and out into nature, or inward for a moment's rest with your eyes closed.
Nature Sounds Application
No matter how much we have separated ourselves from nature, our subconscious mind still remembers the soothing sound of water, rain and birds.
If you hear more of these sounds in your daily life, you will certainly help yourself in trying to slow down.
In a noisy city where songbirds are drowned out by cars, you can install an app that will turn your phone into a source of soothing sounds of your choice - the sound of waves, birds, a waterfall, rain, or several of these sounds combined into a relaxing symphony.
Aromatherapy candle holder
Although not technological, the candle holder is a "helper" in your journey into the world of aromas. They have a strong calming power and you can trust them if you find it hard to find your calm after a long day.
Light the candle at the bottom of the candle holder and drizzle a few drops of lavender, peppermint or orange blossom essential oil into the bowl at the top.
Close your eyes for a few minutes and let the scent permeate your mind.
Soothing lamp
For complete peace of mind, experts recommend not bringing a phone into the bedroom at all. In that case, replace the music apps with a separate device that combines a gentle soothing light and music.
Thanks to this combination, you will be able to easily distract yourself from stressful thoughts.
