There’s a new trend that’s gaining popularity on social media: IMAGINING that you’re at an airport. That sounds like something that requires a trigger warning, but it’s actually about REDUCING stress and anxiety.
Traveling through airports can involve a lot of uncontrollable variables . . . so many people slip into a “treat yourself” mode that ignores diets, fitness, and other normal routines. It’s ANYTHING GOES.
The idea is expanding that . . . to cope with everyday annoyances.
So if someone feels overwhelmed or exhausted with regular life, they announce airport rules are in effect . . . and that clears the way for eating pizza for breakfast, having a drink in the middle of the day, caffeine and energy drinks at any time, and comfortable clothes like pajamas are fair game.
In one video, someone explains, “Money means nothing . . . and time of day means nothing.”
This “trend” apparently started around Election Day . . . but as we head into the holidays, it could definitely have legs.
