How to use these

One line. Slowly.

Read one and do not pick up the phone for five minutes. Boredom affirmations are about tolerating the space; ideas tend to show up right after you stop trying to escape it.

When it helps

Moments these were written for

  • Waiting rooms, commutes, long afternoons
  • When scrolling has stopped being fun
  • A job or routine that has gone flat

FAQ

Questions about feeling bored

Is boredom bad for you?
Chronic boredom can be a sign of unmet needs, but ordinary boredom is healthy and linked to creativity. The problem is usually how fast we escape it, not the feeling itself.
How do I stop being bored all the time?
Ask what the boredom is pointing at: more challenge, more connection, more novelty? "Boredom is telling me what I am missing. I listen" is the question in affirmation form.
