I find boredom essential. It's when I process. It's also when my creativity germinates.
How Embracing Boredom Can Transform Your Life (And 3 Ways to Do It)
I definitely understand that.
@tyghebright Absolutely. One cannot produce art without time for contemplation. One of the many horrifying consequences of a generation of overscheduled children is that they have never had the opportunity to develop the capacity for deep thinking and feeling. Our world is the poorer for it. Now AI is producing "art."
I think it contributes to the trouble many younger people have with emotional regulation. No time to process their feelings.
@tyghebright I hate when people say this but, 1000,000%
The only real time I can stop thinking, relax and truely reflect is when my hands are moving but my brain isn't.
Gardening, looking through pea shingle in the vain hope of finding fossils, absorbing nature and yoga.
The latter I really do need to do some more of.
