I think that all of us default to certain habits and behaviours during times of stress that calm us. Maybe you are a higher level of being and don’t, but I sure do…
My habit is reading, in any form. Agnes is pretty much the greatest dog ever if I do say so myself, and she usually sleeps for 6-7 hours at night without waking up. Still, I’m on the tired side. I’m really enjoying listening to this audiobook about Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret, especially with all of the royal wedding news being released each week! I’ll be sharing my favourite royal biographies soon.
What is your favourite biography?
Until tomorrow,

I agree, there is something really calming and therapeutic about reading. I remember when my grandmother was ill and we went on trips to see her in the hospital, I would read late into the night because I needed some head space. Now I do it to unwind or forget about work for a while. I haven’t read any biographies lately, but would be interested to find out what else you recommend.
