“Stepping out of a normal routine, finding novelty, being open to serendipity, enjoying the unexpected, embracing a little risk, and finding pleasure in the heightened vividness of life. These are all qualities of a state of play.”

We have understood how fundamentally important play is to our fulfilment and to “becoming who we are” from the likes of D.W. Winnicott. Now, much more recent research is proving why. This quote suggests the “how” we are to achieve it.

This podcast focuses on self-exploration and personal identity -- to help you construct who you are, and how you want to feel, think, believe, and behave for yourself. Check out our gratitude challenge for the month of November at bigselfschool.com/gratitude.
