This week I’ve been listening to a song called "Sail Away" by a band named The Long Faces. It is a very dreamy indie-rock song that feels super relaxing, like floating down a quiet river. I like listening to it because the calm, smooth music makes me feel peaceful while I write my week log.
The most fun thing I did this week was get ready to make a special herbal tea for a big school project! I am learning about Traditional Chinese Medicine, which uses natural plants to help people feel better. I went to a neat medicine shop and picked out cool ingredients like roots, dried flowers, and fruit. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, people believe each one helps the body relax, and this tea is a traditional drink for people who have trouble sleeping. Since I live in a dorm room, I had to figure out how to make the tea using only a microwave, a tiny food scale and a measuring cup. It was like a fun science experiment to turn what I learned in class into a real, practical project!
Question for you: What does your family do to help you relax before bed?
