I have a group of friends who always got into interesting things through the years.
There were times when we would hang out and study at the library.
We enjoyed doing that especially because it was comfortable with good temperature control settings and good air quality. We enjoyed going to the movie theatres and going out camping too. The movie theatres were always great with the powerful A/C, and when we would go camping we would take along a portable HVAC unit to use in our sizable tents. Well recently, one of my friends decided to invest in radiant heated floors. The new thing with my friends was actually meditation. They said because of all the stressful things going on in our lives, we needed to be able to relax to ease the stress. So we all would go to my buddy’s house with the ideal temperature control settings for the radiant heated floors. We would also just relax there in front of the fireplace in a meditation pose, and we would just sit there in silence while trying not to think of anything. I thought it was kind of stupid at first, but then I realized that my stress did seem to be going away. I didn’t feel nearly as aggravated as I would normally feel and the more we all meditated together with the radiant heated floors and the fireplace, the better I felt over time. This became a regular thing for us. Sometimes though, I wonder if it’s the radiant heated floors that make me feel better or if it’s truly the meditation by itself that relieves my stress.
