I’m glad you found the space to be able to write and post this week 🩷 I love this article. I remember when I was in therapy in college and my therapist recommended that I go on walks without my headphones in. It seemed CRAZY at the time but a little bit of boredom and time with your own thoughts does wonders.
It’s genuinely so difficult! For me there’s also a layer of self consciousness, like, “Damn, it’s become so normal to see people walk with headphones if they’re alone that I’ll look insane if I’m JUST walking.” Which is ridic, but it’s true nonetheless :-)
