A psychologist summarises her finding that resting (apart from sleeping) is important for our well-being. However, many people do not find respite during the festive season, but to the contrary experience additional stress. It is good to lower expectations for this time of the year and to follow restful activities (such playing video games, going for walks, or playing with children) rather than scrolling on the phone or watching TV.

Philippics [Philippicae; Antonian Orations], No. 2, ch. 16 / sec. 39 (2.16/2.39) (44-10-24 BC) [tr. Grant (1960)]

Chilling out and unwinding with Emerson and Gossip Girl.

Today is a much needed slow day. After spending much of the day yesterday out of the house and mentally screaming for both pleasant and unpleasant reasons, I’m watching Gossip Girl with Emerson and chilling out. I don’t know if anything else is going to happen yet today, but it’s very nice so far. -Allēna #chilling #Emerson #slowday #relaxing #unwinding #GossipGirl
