ACUPRESSURE mat during meditation
I know people typically sit while they do it, but I’ve found laying down on my acupressure mat to be extremely helpful with meditation. I have not been practicing long and its still very difficult for me, but the acupressure makes me physically relax to the point that I am able to be listening and breathing calmly and feeling ‘okay’ enough to want to put my heart into the practice.

meditation before bed
letting the whole day just melt away into breathing in… breathing out… bonus points if you do it laying flat on the floor, for a nice spine realignment while your brain empties

walking meditations
imo an easy way to get into meditating without jumping headfirst into the whole sitting still thing (very hard for me). and a nice way to get outside! i like looking them up on youtube or using headspace

Letting things happen
I have a very strong desire for control over every aspect of my life and I’ve never been able to roll with things. Lately I’m trying to let go of this so I can participate in my ‘friendships’, which I have really been neglecting in recent years. Today a friend texted and asked me to go to the farmers market with her. At first I felt scared (lol) and inclined to ignore the message but I decided instead I would agree to go, and within 5 minutes I was in her car with her. It was a total blur and I was anxious out of my mind but I felt very grateful to spend time with someone I love. I’m terrible at conversing but even just to stand beside her was nice. We hugged before parting ways. I am glad that I did this.

An intellectual history of cannibalism by Catalin avrAmescu
Absolutely the best book I’ve ever read but it took me, if I’m remembering correctly, over a month to get through. It’s so dense with material I had to reread things over and over to get everything being put together. It has an academic vibe, so if that’s not your thing, you probably wouldn’t enjoy. But god, I loved it.

Time was gigantic……. When we were kids - the durutti COLUMN
The other album I’ve been super into the past few days :-D so gorgeous. I’d never heard of this band before and I still haven’t heard their other albums but I feel inclined to listen. They have a really nice sound and the vocalists are both (I think it’s just two?) wonderfully talented. Some of the songs make me want to cry some of them make me want to dance
