What well-being practices do you do?
Will you share them? Maybe you want to teach them to us, or give us the best tips, or pose some questions? Are there any that are so habitual you don't even notice them as "practices" anymore?... I think even more valuable in the coping, if you can manage to get yourself to do it, is actually detailing a very dirty messy car. Watching is good, but the more physically grounding, the better.... - nat...
I’ve been thinking about this over the last several weeks. I have noticed that I too am terrible at sustaining any practice if I’m trying to achieve a desired state/stage and think it will get me something later.... - annabeth...
I love this exploration. I've spent two separate years in my life having a Sabbath day for myself. Mine was always Fridays. All of my electronics had to be powered off and put out of sight.... - Florence...
Jordan, I am currently wrestling with waves of grief as I walk through a shadow course I’m doing. Your post couldn’t have come at a better time for me. I love what you’ve written here and as I far as I can feel - my grief has a warm feeling to it.... - CoachWebb13...

I became less focused on what people think of me, and more focused on what u think of the people I surround myself with. I made a promise to myself...."When you have a choice, always choose kindness.....even to yourself." Now? I live that promise daily.byKarizzma...
absolutely! I also taught mine that in the end you can only be loyal to one person and that person better be yourself if you want to sleep at night. I've had a lot of sleepless nights and the longest ones are always the ones that keep you awake because of something you did that... The Open Question May 6: What keeps you sane?
Hey y'all, The week alone: Iran "ceasefire"? (and gas at $4.46), Pope and Trump at odds, AI doomers and accelerationists, is equity racism?... sometimes it feels like the the heartache is too great.... Before Sleep, Resolve Your Inner and Outer Conflicts
Before going to sleep, repair your conflicts with others + with yourself. Before putting your child to sleep, hold their hand + tell them how you witnessed their light, courage +kindness.... - Alfiealfie...
Hey you are a human. Your feelings are what anyone paying attention is feeling. You’re important. Depression is not the same as sadness and will impact your sleep your appetite and physical well being....
