Excellent and timely story & advice. I have always struggled with pausing given an almost OCDness towards "doing/moving" but I recently started a "power of awareness" course from Tara Brach. I'm in week 2 of doing the course but notice the difference when I sit down early in the AM in our dark media room and listen and meditate along with Tara/John. It helps set the tone for the rest of the day. They provide tons of practices/tips to help create the pauses during the day. Here's a link to the course - https://www.tarabrach.com/calendar/the-power-of-awareness-an-online-mindfulness-training/
