1737: Slow Down to Find Peace: How 2x Speed Steals Your Calm

Welcome to Calmer in 5, where we take just five minutes to help you feel more at ease in your day. Today, we're talking about something many of us do without even thinking—listening to podcasts, audiobooks, or even conversations at 2x speed. It might seem like a great way to get more done, but have you ever noticed how it actually makes you feel? Instead of helping you stay on top of things, it can leave you feeling rushed, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the present moment. So, let's slow down together and explore why faster isn't always better—especially when it comes to your sense of calm.   Links from the Episode!
