Consultant Amy discovered a German ‘Simple Pleasure’ inside an Italian restaurant! 🍝
On Focus and Solitude…
In this era of rampant multi-tasking, we are accustomed to eating with our eyes glued to a screen. But in an Italian restaurant in Germany, Consultant Amy witnessed an interesting scene…
At several nearby tables sat German diners, each sitting alone. Coincidentally, they had all ordered a pizza or pasta. They sat there quietly, eating their food with focus and relish.
No scrolling through phones. No headphones. No books.
Only after finishing did they reveal satisfied smiles. Some picked up their phones only then; others returned their trays. They went home wearing those smiles the whole time.
To me, it looked like they had reached a state of ‘Flow’ just by eating!
In Corpus Learning Facilitation, we constantly emphasise the importance of #Environment…creating ‘white space’ in both our physical surroundings and our minds.
Practising #Mindfulness is about carving out your own time and space for calm.
When the brain becomes habituated to constant digital interference, we lose the ability to savor the moment. Practising a complete ‘disconnect’ while eating is the perfect training for entering a state of Deep Work in our professional lives.

在義大利餐廳裡，Amy顧問發現了德國人的「小確幸」！

關於專注與獨處…

在這個多工 (Multi-tasking) 盛行的時代，我們連吃飯都習慣配著螢幕。但在德國的一間義大利餐廳裡，Amy顧問看見了有趣的畫面…
Zài zhège duō gōng (Multi-tasking) shèngxíng de shídài, wǒmen lián chīfàn dōu xíguàn pèizhe yíngmù. Dàn zài déguó de yī jiàn yìdà lì cāntīng lǐ,Amy gùwèn kànjiànle yǒuqù de huàmiàn…
附近的幾桌都各坐著一位德國人，每桌都只有一個人。 他們不約而同點了一份披薩或義大利麵，安靜地坐在那裡，專心地、津津有味地吃著盤裡的食物，沒有滑手機、沒有戴耳機、也沒有拿著書。
Fùjìn de jǐ zhuō dōu gè zuòzhe yī wèi déguó rén, měi zhuō dōu zhǐyǒu yīgèrén. Tāmen bùyuē’értóng diǎnle yī fèn pīsà huò yìdà lì miàn, ānjìng de zuò zài nàlǐ, zhuānxīn dì, jīnjīnyǒuwèi de chīzhe pán lǐ de shíwù, méiyǒu huá shǒujī, méiyǒu dài ěrjī, yě méiyǒu ná zhe shū.
吃完後，他們露出了滿足的微笑，有的人這時才拿起手機，有的人回收餐盤，全程帶著微笑，回家。

對我來說，就像是吃飯吃出了心流了！在 Corpus 的學習引導中，我們常強調 #Environment (環境) 的重要性，物理空間、心靈空間的留白。
Duì wǒ lái shuō, jiù xiàng shì chīfàn chī chūle xīn liúle! Zài Corpus de xuéxí yǐndǎo zhōng, wǒmen cháng qiángdiào #Environment (huánjìng) de zhòngyào xìng, wùlǐ kōngjiān, xīnlíng kōngjiān de liú bái.
練習 #Mindfulness (正念/專注) ，就是創造自己的靜心時間與空間。
Liànxí #Mindfulness (zhèngniàn/zhuānzhù), jiùshì chuàngzào zìjǐ de jìngxīn shíjiān yǔ kōngjiān.
當大腦習慣了無時無刻的數位干擾，我們就失去了品味當下的能力。而練習吃飯時完全關機，剛好也可以練習工作中，進入「深度工作」(Deep Work) 狀態。
