I’m never quite prepared for our annual government-sanctioned exercise in sleep deprivation. March reliably delivers Daylight Saving Time, and yet it never fails to catch me unaware and drag me from my comfortable sleep schedule into some yawning chasm of circadian confusion. Last week’s changing of the clocks proved to be no exception. I retired on Saturday night around 10, as I normally do, and woke as usual around 7 — except it was 8.

Let’s start with a statement so obvious that it seems beside the point: Whatever we do in this life, others do too. Whether it’s playing sports, parenting, cooking, sealing a deal — you name it — other people are engaging in the same activity, and some of them are going to show up in our world. For many people, it’s easy to celebrate the fact that others are engaged in our pursuits — we can feel fellowship with them, learn from them, or take them under our wing as students.

1) Settle in as comfortably as you can. This may mean sitting, standing, or lying down. Quiet your mind. Tune in to your body and notice how you are holding yourself. See whether there’s any way to make yourself even more comfortable. 2) Notice the earth supporting you. Allow yourself to feel grounded, even rooted, in the earth. Bring awareness to your breathing. There’s no need to do anything; just breathe in and out at a comfortable, normal pace.

By Henry Emmons, MD and Aimee Prasek, PhD | Experience Life Two practices may make the difference between recovering from depression and getting stuck. One is connection and the other is self-acceptance. These are two sides of the same coin. Connection involves cultivating authentic relationships with others, and self-acceptance means creating an authentic relationship with yourself.

By Henry Emmons, MD and Aimee Prasek, PhD | Experience Life Deep, loving connections with others are among life’s most gratifying experiences. They also support our mental, emotional, and physical health in ways too numerous to count. Yet deep connections require us to open our hearts — a process that can be difficult and uncomfortable.

If you feel like you really don’t know where to find fun in your life, try setting a modest stretch goal that pushes you out of your comfort zone, Mark Congdon, author of The Ideal Life suggests. It doesn’t even have to be something that sounds especially fun; you’re seeking the satisfaction that comes from pursuing a new skill. Then you can build on that feeling of full engagement. “So, rather than put too much pressure on the result, focus on the process that leads to the result,” he says.

Catherine Price, author of The Power of Fun, created a framework with the acronym SPARK to help guide people to their “personal fun North Star.”The first step is to make space for fun, by clearing mental and physical clutter. This might mean clearing out the garage to have room to roller skate, but it can also mean freeing up time, mental bandwidth, or emotional space bogged down in resentments. Next is to pursue passions.

By Henry Emmons, MD and Aimee Prasek, PhD | Experience Life Cycles are everywhere in nature: the sun, the moon, the tides, the weather, the seasons. Plants and animals follow these rhythms, adjusting their eating and behavior patterns accordingly. Humans are more likely to ignore or even fight the natural cycles that govern our bodies.
