“Play is the thing”- Shakespeare (kind of)

I'm kind of quoting/paraphrasing Mr. Shakespeare here. If he had just left out the beginning "the" when he wrote this way back when, he could have an amazing life coach or therapist. Who knows where his career would have gone! 😉

To paraphrase and build on what Bill S. said:

"Play is the thing....."
- that inspires creativity
- that allows problem solving
- that allows room for choice
- that keeps us healthy
- that is restorative
- that can allow healthy collaboration

The list can go on and on. As humans we need and crave play to recalibrate and restore. And somewhere along the line we are taught/conditioned that play is a waste of time. And it's 100%, absolutely, without a doubt NOT true. Let's break that conditioning and mindset together.

What's one small thing you can today that is purposeless and restorative that you can do today for yourself? And if you do it, how does it feel in your body after you do it?
