Most of us find ourselves juggling lots of different thoughts. Our to do lists seem endless and it's very difficult to find space in our heads for anything else. Yet, our brains process information, make links and generate new ideas when they are resting. This means doing something that doesn't require too much focus. It might be having a bath, a shower, taking a walk or doing the washing up. These activities engage the brain but leave enough space for ideas or inspiration to come to us. It's in these quiet moments that it has a chance to breathe. You can say that this is a type of meditation. Ensuring that you include breathing space in your day, will help you think more clearly and find solutions to problems more easily.
