Touch Some Grass is our regular series, and this fourth episode is another reminder of why we keep coming back to it: to give you a moment to properly breathe out and spend a bit of quiet time with yourself. And no, I don’t mean that half-asleep scroll we all fall into the second our head hits the pillow. I mean a proper reset.

Surveys referenced by the World Health Organization suggest the average adult spends around 6 - 7 hours a day on screens. Realistically, it is often even more — an eight-hour workday on a laptop, plus another two or three hours drifting through social media without even noticing.

By the end of the day, your body is completely overstimulated. Mental fatigue becomes the best-case scenario, which says a lot considering everything else that comes with it.

So how do you deal with it? Nothing complicated. Just slow things down. And that is exactly where this playlist comes in — think of it as a gentle way to switch off. Ideally, give it an hour, but even twenty minutes is a good place to start.

Two simple rules:

  1. No multitasking — your mind shouldn’t be half here and half writing another email in the background;
  2. Come back to it regularly — let it become part of your rhythm.
