It’s time to close the files, mute the calls, and clear our packed schedules, at least for a little while.
August invites us to slow down, to make space, and perhaps to think a little less…and feel a little more.
And it’s not just your imagination: according to a recent analysis by State of Mind, our minds truly regain balance and clarity when we stop chasing every notification.
Constant hyperconnectivity dulls emotional awareness and stifles creativity. In other words: if you want great ideas, unplug from time to time.
While we’re caring for our minds, let’s not forget our skin: the World Health Organization estimates that 80% of skin cancers are preventable with proper sun protection.
This isn’t a minor detail -it’s prevention. A well-applied SPF 30+ is our best ally for the summer- and for our future.
Now that you’re in the shade -under a pine tree, beach umbrella, or seaside café- why not settle in for some thoughtful reading?
If you missed an issue or simply want to revisit the ideas, we’ve gathered all recent “Sostenibilmente in…” newsletters into one anthology.
A journey through data, stories, and reflections to keep on your bedside table…or tucked into your beach bag.
Have a wonderful summer, wherever you are.
May your days be gentle, protected, and full of fresh air for the mind.
See you in September,
Chiara Pontoni
