Time to relax!

  • “The idea behind floating is simple: Spending an hour in a tank filled with 10 inches of water and about 800 pounds of Epsom salt, without any stimulation to distract us, lowers our heart rate, blood pressure and muscle tension, thereby reducing stress. Also, when we’re relaxed, our bodies release endorphins, the happy chemical.” – I Tried Floatation Therapy + Here’s What Happened
  • “Because the globs of paint are mirrored to create a symmetrical effect and because it looks like the paint is mixing itself on its own without a palette knife, it’s sort of a trip to watch it all get thrown together, like if it was just magically plopping itself on top of each other in some sort of mesmerizing magical dance.” – Watching Paint Symmetrically Mix Itself Is Surprisingly Fun
  • “The monotonous rumble of an aircraft’s engines with subtle movements and sound in the aircraft’s cabin can have great relaxational properties, and a lot of people find great benefit in falling asleep to the sound of an aircraft’s engines and then waking up eight hours later relaxed, and ‘virtually’ in another country!” – Around the world with Inflight Video, YouTube’s most soothing aviation channel
  • “The closest thing our body has to ESP, Shams muses, is when someone experiences phantom limb phenomenon, which occurs when a person has a limb removed; it’s sensory deprivation in the realest sense.” – Real ESP Experiments Inspired ‘Stranger Things’
  • “‘Social media can have some benefits and opportunities for connectivity. For example, social media platforms allow people with anxiety to express their feelings and connect with others who suffer from similar issues,’ says Monroe, though he adds that, ‘social media needs to be tempered with attentiveness, mindfulness practices, and a critical eye.’” – How Beauty Vloggers Use YouTube To Cope With Anxiety

Time to relax!

  • “After Trump’s election win, the general cottage industry of goofy Joe Biden memes took on a more pointed theme, namely, whatever irreverent thoughts Biden may be thinking now that his lease in the White House is almost up. It’s funny, but also a little sad, because clearly Obama/Biden/Clinton fans are taking out their election frustration by concocting what amounts to massively nerdy presidential revenge fan fiction.” – The 11 best Joe Biden memes as America says bye to its Uncle-in-Chief
  • “Following Tuesday’s election, one thing is clear: Many people are feeling sad, stressed or even downright scared. Apps to the rescue. If you need help calming down, these apps could help lift your spirits, or at least temporarily forget about the results.” – 8 apps to help you relax after the election
  • “After speaking with many people and reading a lot of forums, I’ve found that, while general anxiety may be something most of us can “cope” with, whether it be through a prescription, holistic medicine, or mental and physical practices, there are times when panic attacks momentarily throw all that coping out the window.” – 20 Calming & Positive Affirmations For When An Anxiety Attack Strikes
  • “Now, our suggested remedy for Election Stress Disorder is by no means a cure. Allowing Bob Ross, host of the epic PBS series “The Joy of Painting,” to guide you through a Majestic Mountain tutorial is akin to listening to arbitrarily soothing ambient noises thanks to a random YouTube channel. The science behind ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) videos ― intended to lull their audience into a tingly state of momentary pleasure ― is slim.” – Extremely Calming Bob Ross Episodes To Get You Through This Election
  • “While studies have shown a link between aromatherapy and improved mental health, this isn’t a story about science: It’s a story about feelings — and Rosie By Rosie Jane makes me feel really, really good. Clean, unadulterated scents are the bedrock of By Rosie fragrances. Created by a makeup artist who wanted an inoffensive scent to wear while working in close proximity to her clients, the brand’s hallmark fresh fragrance, Leila Lou (which I once described as a perfume that smells “like a grassy spring day”) was born.” – The Soothing Scent for When You’re Mad As Hell
