Turning The Brain Off

"Hopefully I'll be able to turn my brain off this weekend."

That is what I said to my friend, Urooj, yesterday when we picked our kids up from school. He responded with the best possible response I could have asked for.

"Don't turn it off, elevate it!"

Wow...

This shows the power of words. Elevating my brain is way more fascinating than turning it off. Ultimately I just want to be able to focus on what's in front of me and enjoy the long weekend with family without thinking too much about all the stuff I feel I "have to do".

​I want to be present as much as possible.

I'm committed to elevating! I was not committed to turning my brain off.

How will you elevate your brain this weekend?
