We like to think of our blog as a guide for the anxious, the curious, the lonely and the lost. We favor great design, accessibility, inclusivity and, whenever possible, bricks-and-mortar physical places where people can gather, learn and play together (though let’s add a COVID asterisk of some type here now).

Need some quick and easy ways to feel better? This is not another impossible-to-complete checklist designed to make you feel guilty about your inability to get anything done, but rather, a source of inspiration designed to help you meet your needs and improve your mental well-being in a way that is simple and impactful.

Head this way for personal essays, thoughts, feelings and manifestos. Simple reminders that we are far less alone in the world than we may feel.

Culture Therapy is our series on the books, podcasts, music, magazines, and other media that we turn to when in need. No pressure to leave the house. (No pressure to even wear pants.) Just a collection of all the things that help you to feel good, from home.
