The crunch of snow below my feet and the wonder of tiny tracks dotting the surface? Magical. I do not love the cold but getting to the top of a mountain in winter makes enduring the temperature so worth it.

it doesn't snow often here but when it does i love being out in it. taking a walk is already amazing but adding cold, a satisfying crunch with every step, and seeing the little animal tracks? amazing. my favorite are birds and rabbits.

every year I dread this season but wind up finding joy and feeling energized by embracing the snow and cold. A few years ago I visited Lake Placid NY, a town that revolves around winter sports (and still has these amazing relics standing from the 1980 Winter Olympics). skiing, ice skating, sledding, hiking in the snow, or layering up and going on walks help get through the shorter and darker days. Itβs kind of amazing that rain turns into layers and layers of pure white, dampening sound and temporarily covering all the intricacies of the world. Itβs so quiet out there. And when you come back inside you appreciate your warm lil corner of the world even more.

Echoing the value of restπ consider the 7 types of rest and see what areas might feel nice for you to incorporate into your day/week rn.
There are some great tools out there (esp. if therapy or doctors visits are inaccessible or just not the right path for you) to support mental health or creative practices. Some free/web available resources I trust are The Artists Way by Julia Cameron (caveat that this has some chat about spirituality, and for some folks that may not be a great fit, but super useful otherwise), Thinking Traps Tutorial by Dr. Raquel Martin or any of her free resources really, and symptom journaling generally. Would be glad to share both wider or more specific reccs if desired.
And just know it takes time but it's not forever that you'll feel dispassionate. Sending lots of gentleness and warmth to you.

Tidal's services cost less, audio quality is superior, pays artists better; has an algorithm that does not filter people to the top grossing artists in their listening genre and is all around excellent, the app is trimmed down, it provides a weekly analysis of your listening (so a more frequent and representative breakdown). Fuck spotify, and if you're not ready to move to a bandcamp only purchase/download + MP3 situations then Tidal is your one. I'm sure this is not a new take, but I will say I am over the moon about the switch so far.

Love this app, it's wonderful, thanks for your work! Some color themes make it difficult to see whether you've liked/starred something or not (like the star looks yellow before you've clicked it and when you do, it's tough to know if it's been properly selected). It would be awesome to tweak the color pallette of the pre-like/star state on those themes.
