It's so easy for things to get in our way from playing -- from feeling alive and silly, for its own sake.
But just as easily we can unblock ourselves, and find even more joy and fun in our everyday lives.
When was the last time you did something for no reason at all? Not to get fitter, get ahead, or get a good photo out of it. Just because it was fun.
Somewhere along the way, most of us just.... stopped playing!!! We track our sleep, our steps and our screen time, and we turned our hobbies into side hustles. Even our rest has become something to get right.
As kids we knew how to be silly without thinking twice. As adults, it can sometimes feel embarrassing to try.
Play isn't a luxury. It's how we connect, take risks, find our way back to ourselves, and remember what makes us feel alive.
In this Lifeshop, presented with The Galconomist and inspired by the Play Issue, Lifeshop founder Alex Simon will help us explore how we want to play, find out what gets in our way, and how to bring more of fun, joy, and pleasure into our day to day.
