Somewhere in adulthood, many of us forget the essential art of imagination. But our inner child still remembers how to linger, to wonder, to sit quietly with a thought and let it unfold into a world.
A recent study showed that those who were able to show more compassion towards themselves than others were physically healthier. Self-compassion is even shown to be positively correlated with secure attachment, while the opposite is found for anxious and avoidant attachment styles. So, with all of the benefits, why is it so hard to do?

📝 A good question: What is your favorite summer pastime?
"I'm a sucker for cute things, and the new tiny collection from Our Place is perfect for when I'm cooking for one, or for making small portions for my baby. The tiny pot and pan are made without PFAS and heat up so much faster than my regular-sized pots. I love them for oatmeal, single eggs, rice, or a smaller portion of pasta! The brand even gave us a discount code to share — TheGoodTrade for 10% off your order." [Check it out]
A reader comment we love:
"I love this. I also left Amazon more than a year ago and so much better living aligned to my values. I did purchase a few items for my daughter’s birthday party this past year. I loved the part of your piece about not beating yourself up about it. We are all complicit in unjust systems. How and where we can minimize harm is the key question to ask ourselves every day. We should also mention that Amazon has a monopoly on many industries, including tech, and owns Whole Foods and Goodreads. I also gave up those as well."
