>But you mind is never at rest. Its always thinking, ruminating. 'doing nothing' is impossible and absurd, you mind is always 'doing something'
You'd be surprised.
For those that this doesn't come naturally (or have stress, are anxious etc), they can try some meditation techniques.
Meditation is not about some mystical mumbo jumbo, it's about being mindful and taking control of your thoughts, so think it more of like training of your "thought-muscles" to shut up and enjoy the silence, than "becoming one with the universe".
