Episode Notes
This week, Mikaela reads a poem about bedtime procrastination.
The poem and discussion challenge the colloquial understanding of this experience alongside its common coping mechanisms, questioning the environments that create such behaviour—beyond our intentions and self-regulation. The poem asks us to consider: is this a lack of self-control or am I trying to meet a need the only way I can in my present circumstances and environment?

No, I haven’t looked at my screens for over thirty minutes. I read a magazine. I stretched muscles I only found ten minutes ago. I meditated. But for some reason, I’m still holding the closing loop of the box breath (and no, I don’t have hiccups). Rather, I’m stuck on the inhale of an extra cycle and can’t let it go. My body bursts with uncracked glowsticks that could build a seven-eleven and perch it along a deserted two-lane backstretch at midnight.
