Late to the game here, but the only practice I've managed to hold on to over the years is freeing the first hour of my day from any tasks other than reading and eating my first meal of the day. Not huge, but my scattered brain needs me to free up time in order to concentrate later.
this!! wow, super relatable. the growth and awakening of spring and the exhaustive thirst of summer. seriously love the thought of framing something as it will “make life easier for my future self”. To do this, I’m finding ways to make my sleep more restful, to put my damn phone down more often and embrace the slow crawl that Mercury’s retrograde is creating. Going to do it with this mindset, so thanks for sharing it!: “I’m embracing care practices and not allowing myself to examine the mechanics.”
I love your substack!
