If the walls are closing in on your shared apartment or a chosen family dynamic, don’t despair. This patch of stormy weather will pass. Instead of resisting the heaviness, lean into it. Blast your favorite album and have a bawling fit before facing the dirty dishes. And if you’re not in the mood to talk, brew your loved ones a pot of tea and let them know you’ll be there on the other side. Giving space is an act of love. You’ll be laughing about your sulks before you know it.
