How I Learned to Make My Weekends Feel Twice as Long

4. Get Outdoors—Nature is the Ultimate Time-Stretcher

I’ll be honest: I’m not always an outdoorsy person. But last year, I forced myself to take a hike. And guess what? It was like hitting the reset button. As I walked through the trees, everything slowed down. My mind cleared. I felt more connected to the world, and time seemed to expand with each step. Nature does that. So, get out there! Whether it’s a hike, a park picnic, or a sunset stroll—spending time outside will make your weekend feel like a mini vacation.
