This is good stuff Sam, love the idea of transition zones and having a routines at the beginning and end of activities. Been thinking a lot recently on the importance of having traditions in different seasons of life, which is sort of a celebratory transition zone in its own right. Will be thinking about this one for awhile!
Such a pleasure reading this, Sam, and so helpful! I'm going through a macro life transition, but reading your piece made me realise how many micro-transitions I make throughout the day and how I might improve them. For example, I've noticed I've unconsciously adopted transition routines for exercise and yoga. Aiming to do better with other parts of the day, like sleep-wake routines.
