May 2025 To Do List

May invites a softer rhythm—the kind that makes you pause mid-bite, feel the sun on your skin, and hear your own breath. It’s the perfect month to step away from the noise and lean into presence.

Our May theme is Mindfulness—not the fancy kind that requires a retreat in the woods, but the everyday kind that reminds you: this moment is enough.

To help you stay inspired all month long, we’ve created a free iPhone wallpaper featuring this month’s mindful to-dos and a mini calendar. Think of it as a little pocket-sized reminder to slow down and savor the good things.

Try a Digital Detox Day

One full day without the scroll? Yes, please.

Unplug your phone, turn off the notifications, and notice how it feels to be in the world without constant pings and dings.

Tip: Prep a little analog joy in advance—a walk, a new book, or a Good Things notepad to jot down thoughts the old-fashioned way.

Practice Mindful Eating

No more eating lunch hunched over your keyboard. This month, try tuning in: taste each bite, savor the texture, and notice how food makes you feel.

You don’t need to light a candle or whisper to your salad—just slow down and enjoy what’s on your plate.

Mindful eating isn’t about restriction—it’s about appreciation.

Explore Yoga or Tai Chi

You don’t have to be flexible or graceful to begin—just willing.

Whether it’s a beginner yoga flow or a slow Tai Chi sequence, these practices are all about tuning in to your body and breath. Think: intentional movement that feels like a hug from the inside out.

Bonus points if you roll out your mat under the May sunshine.

This month, make space for moments that matter. The kind that aren’t rushed or broadcasted or perfectly curated. The kind that exist only for you.
