Sleeping Naked Will Change Your Life
I started sleeping naked out of necessity - my body runs at approximately the temperature of a small sun at all times, which is perfect for surviving the scottish winters (I rarely need a jacket), but a bummer when a heatwave hits. When the heatwave left, however, I just kept on doing it - even in winter. What shocked me the most was not the fact that my body temperature was more comfortable, that was a given, but rather that my body image, the condition of my skin, and the quality of my sleep improved immensely.

The Radical Act of Self-Acceptance. Top Story - December 2021.
I undressed for bed and looked at myself. Really looked. Why are hotel lights so unforgiving? I saw a bloated stomach from the evening meal, bulges under bra straps, thighs with slightly dimpled skin. And my pores … I hadn’t noticed how big they’d gotten, or how dull my hair looked in the light.

What Is Equanimity and How Can We Achieve It?
What Is Equanimity and How Can We Achieve It? Equanimity is a state of composure that most people want to achieve but aren’t sure of the steps they need to take. When cultivating equanimity in your daily life, you become more emotionally stable, optimistic, and calm, even when you’re experiencing difficulties that would cause most people to lose their cool, get worked up, and possibly even overreact. Those who master the art of equanimity have the upper hand because they’ve discovered how to control their thoughts and feelings, remain at ease, and avoid latching on to negative thoughts, feelings, and situations. And, while it may take time to get to that point of feeling so incredibly calm, there are several techniques you can use to achieve the mental calmness you desire.
