sitting with yourself for a day is underrated. not on depressed vibes but just like a check in with self. listen to your favorite music. just sit there and think. look at the sky or whatever.
it’s healing. no screen, no headphones, no book, no nothing. just you sitting doing nothing and being. maybe inside or maybe (ideally) outside. maybe in a chair. maybe lying down. looking around and observing. maybe 5 minutes or maybe an hour.
think about it, join me: maybe journal, maybe clean, maybe egg, maybe egg sandwich. perhaps guitar or favorite record or long shower. refill water whenever you need it. gaze up at a tree from underneath for too long or not long enough or maybe just the right amount of time to realize you have blanket and limitless afternoon and warmth of people you love, and you sit down and look at all of the moss and tiny mushrooms and patterns of the bark and exist within the smallness of yourself in the big wide universe.
I’m not going to turn on a light until like 8pm. it helps if you have good window placement but artificial light during the day is a terrible thing. it’s ok if it’s a little dark too.
It’s one of the greatest archival platforms in existence. Everyone should take advantage of that. Just upload some videos of whatever and keep it on the low - diary style.
