In a world that constantly pushes us to go faster, our Being Lazy and Slowing Down (BLSD) services offer a refreshing alternative. BLSD is about creating intentional pauses even amidst your busy life — not to hinder your progress, but to enhance it. It’s about creating space for quality experiences, finding joy in your work, and achieving your goals with a renewed sense of purpose and wellbeing.
For Writing and Planning with Ease and Joy
Our programs provide a supportive space for higher-ed professionals to write and plan with consistency and community.
- Writing Circle (WC) offers co-writing sessions to help you stay focused on your projects.
- Weekly Reflection & Planning (WRP) guides you through reflecting on your week and planning the next, all within a dedicated hour.
This is a virtual space for co-writing where BLSD members come together twice a week for 70 minutes and work on their own writing projects. Here is a webpage with details about the new session, where you can see what it’s like. If you are interested in this, please sign up for our mailing list so that you will get most updated information or contact us at here.
This is also a virtual space where BLSD members come together on Friday for an hour and work on their own reflection on the week and planning for the following week. You wouldn’t miss getting the important task done just within an hour. Here is a webpage with details about the current session.
For Healing & Thriving
Our group programs offer higher-ed professionals a supportive community to navigate life/career transitions and embrace a BLSD-driven, more intentional lifestyle.
- Thrive Through Transition (TTT) helps you transform anxiety into opportunity during career and life changes.
