“The art of doing nothing doesn’t have to be some sort of fancy meditation technique,” says celebrity trainer Joey Thurman, CES, CPT, FNS. “I’m simply talking about taking 10 minutes to turn off everything, put your phone down, and close your eyes and simply be.”

Wait—how does this help you reach your body goals? Well, according to Thurman, “it can have a tremendous effect on your mood, stress levels, and, yes, your body.”

Not only will it help you relax and recharge, but it can be a healthy endeavor in and of itself. “Being able to go into a more relaxive parasympathetic state can truly help with your journey,” he says. “If you pair this with some diaphragmatic breathing exercises you have a double whammy! This is also cyclical, if you can de-stress more, this will lead to a better night sleep, more hormonal regulation, and increased fat burning!”
