Where my daydreamers at?? Chronic daydreamers? Maladaptive daydreamers?? The hopeless and romantic daydreamers...?!
Y'all are my people.
I am a frequent visitor to outer space. You know how some folks have a finite amount of energy and need to ration their activities?
I kind of have that with ✨f o c u s i n g✨.
All of my creative output springs from my internal realm, which is vast and rich and exciting and comforting. But honestly, I retreat there too often.
It's something I love to do but it's also a coping mechanism. At its worst, I can lose time or sometimes, I can't even control when I slip away into dreamland (that's the maladaptive part).
There's a handful of activities I've found that keep me "present"... or even better, in the flow state (aka, my bliss state).
Writing
Playing music
Yoga
Video games
Tickling 🫠
As much as I love daydreaming, it's even more wonderful when a vibe or experience is so magnetic that I can't resist its pull.
I have a lot of fun being a space cadet, but I also like interacting with this plane of existence too. Literally, I have a desire to keep it "real". 🫶🏻
