For me, sitting still can be a struggle.

"Relax", is a small booklet that I picked up in a Wisconsin second hand store a number of years ago. I’ve often gone and re-read it whenever I felt on edge—carrying too much stress and worry.

I’d always wanted to reprint the booklet, so that it could be read by more people. The original goal was to slowly transcribe each chapter from the booklet with new illustrations. One chapter a month. The first chapter was posted on willdinski.com in January 2019. I live for big projects that I can slowly chip away at.

However, with more time that I would normally like to sit in front of my computer, and to put my mind on calmer things—I turned to completing the project a few months early.

With pervasive uncertainty, we are all carrying a lot of tension in our bodies. I hope that being aware of how you feel and the ways you can reduce that tension will keep us healthy.
