Covid numbers are going up, and this is only the first wave, Artic temperature reached it's highest ever 100 degrees, civil unrest... not sure if school is in or out this coming fall...
Breathing in, breathing out, breathing in 1-2-3-4, breathing out 1-2-3-4....
We are going through a VERY stressful year. What do you do when things feel too overwhelming?
I think knowing that other people are feeling similarly overwhelmed has helped me (which is why I appreciate your post!). It helps me to reach out and be able to listen to other people's highs and lows, and be able to share my own recent experiences.
I've found that getting outside of the 'bubble' that is my house (which involves most of my current hobbies, interactions, recipes, etc.), helps me gain a lot of perspective and allows me to appreciate the good things happening in my life. That has involved going on walks, long drives, calling friends, watching traveling documentaries, and so on.
Hope everyone is doing okay. And it's okay if you're not - know that there are others feeling the same. Stay safe
I love this! what travel documentaries can you recommend?
Here are some of my favorite travel/nature docs and shows:
180° South - Covers the journey of Jeff Johnson as he travels from California to Patagonia, Chile. It showcases lots of beautiful outdoor spaces, and dives deep into the minds of adventurers and conservationists.
Our Planet - Nature documentary, created by the same people that did Planet Earth, with a heavier focus on the impacts that humans have on our world.
Human Planet - Showcases different cultures and lifestyles around the world, focusing on how humans have adapted to different environments.
Salt, Fat, Heat, Acid - More of a food doc, chef/author Samin Nosrat travels around the world, focusing on what she believes are the 4 essentials to any complete meal.
The Kindness Diaries - One man travels the world on his motorbike in search of kindness and compassion from complete strangers, relying on them for food, shelter, and companionship.
Would love to hear about other shows/docs that people enjoy. Let me know!
Oh! these all sound beautiful!! I think I'm going to check out 180 South!
