享受美好夏日时光：10个细节这样过夏天 “Then followed that beautiful season…Summer…Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light;and the landscape layas if new createdin all the freshness of childhood.”——Henry Wadsworth Longfellow “然后是那个美丽的季节夏天空气中充满了梦幻有魔力的光美景铺陈开来好像所有童年的新鲜里又有新鲜被创造出来 ”——美国诗人亨利·沃兹沃思·朗费罗 Today I’d like to share 10 small and simple tips that you can use to create a happier summer – and rest of the year – for yourself. 今天我想分享10个简单的小贴士，让你的夏天、还有今年剩下的时间，都更快乐。 1. Go slow. 放慢节奏 You’ll be less stressed and you’ll enjoy all the smells, the sights and people in your summer even more. So slow down a bit and use all your senses to tap into what is happening in this moment around you and inside of you. 在夏天，你会觉得压力变小，你会更喜欢夏天所有的味道、风景和人。所以把节奏放慢一点，用你所有的感官去碰触此时你周围和你自身发生的事。 2. Say yes to the new. 对新事物说YES Go for something new. Expand your comfort zone in a small way. Or a bigger one. 去体验新事物。把自己的舒适区域适当扩大一点。 Go somewhere you haven’t been before. Take up a new hobby.

Say no to the shoulds of the summer. 对那些夏天必做的事情说NO The sneaky shoulds can make a vacation filled with things you “just have to do before the summer is over” seem like draining work and leave you more tired than you were before your time off even started. 那些讨厌的“夏日必做”会让假期充满了“在夏天结束前必须做”的事情，好像会耽误工作，而且会让你比夏天开始前更疲倦。 So ask yourself: Will this matter in 5 years? Or even 5 months? 所以问问你自己：这些事在5年内重要吗？5个月呢？ Zooming out like this makes it easier to see the real value of doing something. And it makes it easier to simply relax and to say no to doing something because you realize that it isn’t that important anyway. 像这样缩小“必做”范围会更容易看清楚做某件事的真正价值，也更容易放松自己，对做某件事说NO，因为你知道它并没有那么重要。 4. Just do nothing at all. 什么也不做 It is easy to fall into the trap of thin
