👀 One Thing We’re Obsessed With

Who doesn’t love a trip down memory lane 💭 Did you know there’s a Web Design Museum?!

If you’re a creative, this is good reminder that it’s okay to have a shitty first draft! Some of the most popular websites used to be... not great.

🎧 One Thing We’re Listening To

We know most of you are overstimulated (same), so if you need a vibe to come back to planet earth, the music on this YouTube channel may put you in trance. This is a very witchy rec from us!

Put this on lightly in the background while you work, or pair this with our One Last Thing below and report back 👀

🤔 One Question For You

⭐️ One Last Thing

Enjoy this very practical list of ways to have a peaceful moment by Lord of Habits, James Clear:

  • Close your eyes and just breathe for two minutes

  • Leave your phone in another room for an hour

  • Watch a cloud form and then dissolve

  • Stand in the sunshine and notice how it warms your skin

  • Light a candle and watch the flame dance
