I've been really struggling to unplug my brain after a heavy week at work and I always overthink my free time, to the point where I don't know what I'd prefer to do.

What's your 'go to' way to relax or disconnect from real life?

Thanks!

Well I've picked up the routine of rock climbing at a indoor gym immediately after a tense day of office work. So I've been going almost daily 😂. You pay little to no mind to anything other than wanting to place both hands on the final hold at the end of a route. I also draw A LOT. Spend quality time with my wife listening to her, engaging in conversation with her and I leave my phone away from me. Cook at home and try to be present and in the moment with all my friends young and old. I'm technically monetarily poor and unapologetically-unbelievably happy. Although we used to be monetarily rich we traded that for more personal time and I will never go back to such a slave-like lifestyle (working like an animal to store useless riches and material objects) don't get me wrong we work really hard but just for our essentials and for the sake of keeping a solid reputation of good work ethic on the 3-4 days we work a week. I recommend it to anyone.
