Storybox Playlist: Stories for a Summertime Siesta
Have you heard the phrase “lazy days of summer”? That’s just what we want to evoke this week. Time to take a siesta, relax, and really take time to go slowly. The stories this week are all about going slow and taking it easy, letting yourself be okay with taking a nap or going for a dip in the pool instead of doing the dishes and cleaning toilets and running errands. I hope these stories inspire you to treat yourself to a little summer rest time.
