This weekend, try giving yourself permission to slow down. While sometimes rest means literally stopping, it can also mean leaning into something that brings you joy, even if it doesn’t feel particularly relaxing. Maybe it’s something you’ve been thinking about for weeks now, or just the opening pages of the book that’s been waiting inside of you. Maybe it’s music, art, or simply sitting and sipping something warm and good.
Whether or not the weekend is a soft landing, let us do what makes us feel good, not what makes us feel guilty. Let us follow our interests instead of our plans, our happiness instead of our obligations—it might seem trivial, but feelings of happiness can add up when we allow ourselves to fully experience them. This is your time, so breathe, create, and embrace it!
