This resonated with me, Alex! I have been on the proverbial hamster wheel for what feels like forever, and in this chapter of my life, it's ALL ABOUT SLOWING DOWN. Less cortisol, more relaxation. Less grind, more rest. Less struggle, more shine. The delicious laziness of time with family and friends, reading books under a blanket... this is what it's all about. I really needed the kick to do a digital detox, too. Great read :).

Thanks, Kerri! Glad it resonates. I feel you on starting a new chapter—maybe even a new book. That’s how profoundly I *need* this shift.
The warp speed I’ve been going at over the past few years (which also feels like forever) doesn’t vibe with the frequency I’m on now.
A friend of mine just told me January is “a month of letting go” and that’s exactly how I’m feeling right now. Cheers to starting Feb on a new note!
I'm looking forward to my Sunday to cozy-fy in a slow Alexandra fashion!
Love that, Becky! Cozy-fying is a key part of self-care.
