My mom taught me this in order to slow down the nervous system. Breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4, breathe out for 4, hold for 4. If you're an anxious person you probably already know this. Also a good way to fall asleep really fast.
close your eyes and imagine a square, then breathe in and out as you imagine tracing the edges. see attached link for visual reference! very helpful breathing exercise for when you need to calm down.
Aperol Spritz but throw away the champagne and replace it with the champagne of beers. Best enjoyed at a sidewalk cafe or in the park. Drink 2-3 for best results.
A rare experience in the city. House parties have a charm and intimacy that just can’t be matched by a bar. Everyone’s forced to physically brush up against each other and talk to people they might not otherwise. A good house party is sexy in this way. Anyone who attended my last halloween party knows this well.
