Slow Down!!!

In this week’s episode of Breen Time, Sabrina explores why so many of us feel pressured to live life at full speed — and what constant busyness is quietly costing us.

From glamorised productivity to back-to-back commitments, we often mistake “doing more” for “being successful.” But running at 100 miles an hour can drain your joy, clarity and sense of presence more than you realise.

Sabrina digs into the emotional drivers behind fast-lane living, the subtle warning signs to watch for, and the surprising benefits of slowing down — all in ways that are realistic and achievable.

You’ll learn:

• Why “busy” has become a badge of honour
• How constant productivity affects your wellbeing
• The emotional patterns behind fast-paced living
• The benefits of slowing down
• Simple, practical changes to reclaim breathing space

This week’s exercise: The Slow Down Audit

Reflect on your own pace of life:

1) What’s driving your busyness?

Fear? Pressure? Self-worth tied to achievement?

2) What would really happen if you slowed down?

Leaving work on time, taking a proper lunch break, adding space between commitments.

3) What one small change can you commit to this week?

Write it down. Start small. Notice the impact.
