Relax! It’s… Wednesday?

If you know me, you probably know that I like to be productive and do something every minute of every day. But some days, especially if there’s nothing that *needs* to be done… I *need* to relax. Today I took a nice, warm shower in the morning, I crossed a few things off my to-do list, but then I just didn’t feel like doing anything else.

There’s this book called ‘Focusing’ by Eugene T. Gendlin - the blue one in the pic. When I went for the trial therapy session, my therapist recommended it to me. As I’m waiting for my turn for the 6 sessions, I bought it. I read the introduction when it arrived, made a mental note that it will be quite useful for me, but then I left it on the table near my desk and (more or less) forgot about it. Well, since reading is one of my favourite ways to relax, I picked it back up.

Later, I might also continue ‘Breasts and Eggs’. This book is very interesting. It keeps me hooked without the pressure of reading, which is a strange thing. It’s slow-paced and I think that makes it very comfortable to just put down and pick up at any time. However, I think I’m at a point where I can’t wait to get to the end of it and see what happens. I have no idea what I’ll be reading next, but I think I decided what I’ll be reading on the plane.
