In this beautifully reflective episode, John explores one of the core habits of highly relaxed people: they take their time.
Whether it’s how they speak, move, or make decisions, Relaxers seem to glide through life without urgency - and as John shares, this isn’t laziness or inefficiency, but a deeply powerful way to reset your nervous system, enhance creativity, and even boost productivity.
John dives into the concept of bidirectionality - how acting calm (e.g., slowing your speech, breathing deeply) can signal your system to feel calm. And he invites listeners to play with pace: noticing what happens to the body, mind, and emotions when you deliberately slow down.
We also hear about the left and right brain's roles in stress vs. calm, and how shifting from sympathetic (fight/flight) to parasympathetic (rest/digest) states can transform your day, your decisions, and even your sleep.
This isn’t about stopping. It’s about doing things differently.
More deliberately. More mindfully.
More like a Relaxer.
