When you were overwound,

underwhelmed,

overstimulated,

or just buzzing with life —

 

You didn’t meditate.

You didn’t journal.

You didn’t buy six healing crystals.

 

You ran outside.

You screamed. Climbed. Spun.

You moved.

 

Kids don’t call it nervous system regulation.

They call it recess.

 

Play was the medicine.

Play is the medicine.

 

You just grew up and forgot.
