Finding Solace Beyond Books
For a long time, books and writing have been my sanctuary during overwhelming moments. I used to disappear into the library and was often dubbed the “voracious reader” or “paper termite.” As I grew older, I discovered other means to anchor myself in times of high stress and uncertainty. I continue to expand this list and find joy in the little things. Besides video games, volunteering, and being there for a friend, I take pleasure in helping others as well. These activities offer solace when I feel like I’m spiraling out of control. What about you? What are your favorite ways to find solace? Consider creating a list to return to whenever you need comfort. 🌀🧘🏽♀️
