I've taken to doing this recently, purely by accident.

I put the 'phone to one side, listened to what was around me, ended up listening - at least a little bit - to what was inside me too.

Although I have also had my dog sat next to me when this happens, I can't confirm whether or not she's using the same technique, save that I can say that she does seem pretty chilled.

I love that! I agree - when I try to be chill, Pants takes a cue from me and settles down, too (unless it’s dinner time).

I really enjoyed reading this. A great reminder to take care of self.
