🛏️ What’s the best way to relax on a weekend if I’m mentally tired?
Honestly, the best thing I’ve done is give myself permission to do nothing. A quiet morning with coffee, no phone, just sitting by the window—it feels like medicine. You don’t need to be productive every second. Rest is productive too.

You’d be surprised how calming a walk in a nearby park can be. I started leaving my phone at home and just listening to birds or watching the trees. It’s free, it’s real, and it clears your head in ways screens never can.

See less📵 Is it okay to turn off my phone for a whole weekend?
Absolutely. I was nervous the first time I did it, but wow—it felt like time slowed down. I actually felt the weekend. No pings, no guilt, just space to breathe. Give it a shot. You deserve the silence.

Reading a short book or journaling with music in the background hits that sweet spot for me. It’s peaceful, but you still feel like you’ve done something meaningful. Even just 30 minutes can feel like a little reset button.

I found a line in the Dhammapada that hit me right in the chest: “There is no fire like passion, no shark like hatred, no snare like folly.” It made me stop and think—was I trapping myself in suffering by holding on so tightly?

I found a line in the Dhammapada that hit me right in the chest: “There is no fire like passion, no shark like hatred, no snare like folly.” It made me stop and think—was I trapping myself in suffering by holding on so tightly? Wisdom, according to the teachings, is about seeing clearly—recognizing pain without clinging to it. That was a turning point for me. I stopped trying to “get rid of” the pain and started trying to understand it. That shift didn’t solve everything overnight, but it gave me a new kind of strength: the kind that comes from seeing pain as a teacher, not an enemy.

I was skeptical. Honestly, I thought mindfulness was just a buzzword people used when they didn’t have real answers. But one day, I decided to try sitting in silence—not to fix anything, just to breathe. And something strange happened. I noticed how much I was fighting the pain, trying to push it awRead more
I was skeptical. Honestly, I thought mindfulness was just a buzzword people used when they didn’t have real answers. But one day, I decided to try sitting in silence—not to fix anything, just to breathe. And something strange happened. I noticed how much I was fighting the pain, trying to push it away. When I stopped resisting, I started feeling lighter. Not instantly, not perfectly—but over time. Mindfulness helped me stop drowning in my thoughts. It gave me a way to gently come back to the present when the past tried to drag me under.
See less🧠 How do I stop obsessing over painful past events?
I wish there were a magic switch to turn it off, but for me, it was a slow and bumpy process. I used to replay certain conversations or mistakes endlessly, like a broken record. I'd try to rewrite the past in my mind. Eventually, I realized that reliving it wasn’t helping—it was just keeping me stucRead more
I wish there were a magic switch to turn it off, but for me, it was a slow and bumpy process. I used to replay certain conversations or mistakes endlessly, like a broken record. I’d try to rewrite the past in my mind. Eventually, I realized that reliving it wasn’t helping—it was just keeping me stuck. What helped was acknowledging it: “Yes, that happened. Yes, it hurt.” And then doing something grounding—like writing it out, going for a walk, or just breathing deeply. The thoughts still come sometimes, but now I know I don’t have to follow them every time they knock on the door.
See less💭 Why do old memories still hurt so much?
Because they mattered. That’s what I’ve come to understand. Some memories still hit me out of nowhere—an old photo, a smell, a quiet moment—and suddenly, I’m back in a place I thought I’d moved on from. For a long time, I thought something was wrong with me for not “getting over it.” But pain lingerRead more
Because they mattered. That’s what I’ve come to understand. Some memories still hit me out of nowhere—an old photo, a smell, a quiet moment—and suddenly, I’m back in a place I thought I’d moved on from. For a long time, I thought something was wrong with me for not “getting over it.” But pain lingers when something touched us deeply. It’s not weakness. It’s a reminder that we cared, that it changed us. The hurt fades with time, but it leaves a shape behind—and I think that’s okay.

I kept telling myself, “Things will get better next quarter.” But deep down, I knew the partnership wasn’t working. I stopped enjoying the business.

I kept telling myself, “Things will get better next quarter.” But deep down, I knew the partnership wasn’t working. I stopped enjoying the business. I was constantly second-guessing myself, and worse — compromising my values just to keep the peace. The final straw was when I realized I was more anxious about meetings with my partner than I was excited about our goals. I sat down, went over our operating agreement, and spoke to a lawyer about exit options. I tried to keep the conversation professional and not burn bridges. Leaving wasn’t easy — financially or emotionally — but now I sleep better, I think clearer, and I’m finally proud of what I do again. Sometimes letting go is the most powerful step forward.

I thought I was just tired from working too much — but it turned out I was emotionally exhausted from walking on eggshells around my partner. He was unpredictable, always nitpicking, and nothing I did ever seemed good enough. I dreaded every meeting. Eventually, my wife pointed out that I was carrying that tension home, and it hit me — this wasn’t sustainable. I started taking early morning walks just to clear my mind before work. I also found a coach I could talk to confidentially. It didn’t fix my partner, but it gave me space to process things and decide how to handle the relationship. Mental fatigue is a signal — don’t ignore it.
