low energy hobbies, your decluttering season and oosouji

Weekend Wisdom: Self care doesn’t always mean adding something. Taking away a habit or something that isn’t serving you is powerful.

Keeping it light.

Our curtain lights stay up from when we turn the clocks back until we spring ahead. With the world going haywire and the Gentle book launch just over two weeks away, I’m doing my best to keep things light and slow in my own little corner. That means firm boundaries around news and social media consumption, candles, open windows (lüften), early bedtime, giving my plants extra attention, making donations to causes and organizations I care about, lots of moving my body, reading and writing.

Ok … onto the favorites
