Slow Sunday Rituals with SOL Organics
Sundays used to be a day full of dread for me. I knew it was the end of the weekend, and I’d feel anxious about starting another full five days of work. I’d want to get the most out of my day, and would stress about making it great – but that stress would immobilize
