VIDEO – HOW TO BE ALONE

WOW.  STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND GIVE YOURSELF THIS GIFT FOR 5 MINUTES TODAY.

This video took my breath away.  Its message is simple, beautiful and truthful. 

Thought it provided a good follow-up to my most recent post about my third week of  TV Detox – Confronting Loneliness.

It says it all.  Appreciate the reminders Tanya Davis provides:

Start Simple – embrace the easy stuff first. 

Be alone with yourself in the bathroom, a coffee shop, a library and then move to bigger things like meals and movies and finally the true test – go dancing all alone!

Resist the urge to hang out with your cell phone!

Lonely is a freedom!

Take silence and respect it!

How are you at being alone?  Where are you in the process of embracing or confronting your alone-ness?

Have you eaten a meal alone? Gone to the movies? Have no desire to explore being alone?

Please share with us your thoughts on being alone.  We would love to hear your comments.
