Why I No Longer Rush Through Board Games
How slowing down helps you enjoy games, people, and moments more
Do you ever finish a board game night feeling like you played a lot of games—but didn't really experience them?
In this episode of Mindful Games Lab, Clay shares why he stopped rushing through board games and what changed when he slowed down. From game backlogs and constant rule learning to treating turns like tasks, this episode explores how speed can shrink wonder—and how presence can bring it back.
You'll hear reflections on playing fewer games with deeper intention, building connection at the table, and rediscovering immersion. Clay also recommends games that naturally reward slowing down.
If you've ever felt burned out or disconnected from game night, this episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and enjoy games more fully.
