Hello Olga!

Thanks for your insight.

I have experienced these feelings myself and the one thing that helped me was reconnecting with my hobbies.

Dancing has been a crucial part of my childhood, and since I started classes again I found a space where I feel the happiest, when most unproductive.

As a kid I did ballet; now I do flamenco following my family heritage.

I dance not to become a pro, nor to perform on a stage. I dance for me. I spend hours watching flamenco dancers or listening to flamenco. I put a lot of dedication into my appearance for class, I do my sleek hair and makeup. I wear the cute gold hoops. I get the red shoes I’ve always dreamed of. I do it just for the fun of it.

All time spent dedicated to my hobby makes me feel grounded and just genuinely content.
