It can feel hard to make space for what may seem like an activity for kids, but play is critical for adults in our stressful and sometimes overwhelming lives. Studies show that adult play is an important means of reducing stress and contributing to overall well-being.
Play is doing an action that brings you joy but has no specific result (gasp!). If you need, set a play-minimum for your day or week and schedule it into your calendar. Don’t know where to start? Choose something from the list above!
Life is short, do something just because it brings you joy. How will you play this weekend?
