You have probably checked the weather on your phone today. You may not have checked it by looking up. The sky is the largest thing in your day and it gets less attention than the loading screen on your banking app.
Sometime today, go to a window or step outside and look up for one full minute. Find the highest cloud you can. Notice whether anything is moving and how fast. Notice the color, which is almost never plain blue or plain gray once you really look. If your mind wanders off to your inbox, bring it back to the same patch of sky.
Nothing up there needs anything from you. That is the appeal. One minute of looking at something huge and unbothered will not fix your week, but it does remind you that your to-do list is not the biggest thing around.
