Habits

So, it’s actually happening. Starting in 2027, Greece is banning social media for anyone under the age of 15.

What happened?

Prime Minister Mitsotakis went on TikTok today to break the news. He’s doing this because he’s seen a massive rise in anxiety and sleep loss in kids who are addicted to their screens. He even sent a letter to the EU asking them to make this a standard across all of Europe.

You already know how to build a habit. You brush your teeth every day without negotiating with yourself about it. What if you treated everything else the same way?

Small shifts, big impact. 🌱 New research from @RealSimple highlights that you don’t need a total life overhaul to live longer.

Honestly, most of this is just common sense, but we could all use the reminder. If you want to live a long and healthy life, stick to the basics below.

The top 5 habits that actually add years:

1. Moving for 30 mins a day 🏃‍♀️
2. Prioritizing quality sleep 😴
3. Staying socially connected 👯‍♂️
4. Managing stress 🧘
5. Eating more whole foods 🥗

It’s never too late to start! Which one are you focusing on today?

So here's something I haven't done in way too long: adult coloring.

I was really into it for a while back in DC. There's something about sitting down with a good coloring book and a fresh set of colored pencils that just... hits different. No screens. No notifications. Just you, some intricate little design, and the very important decision of whether this flower petal is going to be purple or teal. (The answer is always teal, by the way.)
