Do You Enjoy "Floor Time" As An Adult?

After a work Zoom meeting, nothing feels better than closing your laptop, stepping away from your desk, and slowly lowering yourself onto your soft bed. Bonus points if you groan a little, rub your temples, and then have a moment of existential dread.

What if I told you to try the floor instead? You'd probably think I'm crazy, but hear me out!

On TikTok, this practice has been dubbed “floor time.” Floor time appears to be the best course of action for anyone who is feeling anxious, depressed, or just wants a few moments to decompress.

According to TikTok, floor time also feels right after a breakup, after a long day, or when you’re in a bad mood, which might explain why so many pop culture moments reference floor time as well. 

You've also seen "floor time" on your most loved shows, like Euphoria! In the scene in Euphoria when Cassie has floor time and Nate isn’t texting her back, you can hear Taylor Swift’s lyric, which references "floor time" as well!

Feeling the hardness of the floor beneath you also sends a message to your body that you’re safe and supported, which can help you feel more present—like the ground literally has your back. It’ll also feel right to get down low if you sit all day for work.

Would you consider trying out some "floor time?"
