What we're reading:
A short but enlightening post by Mona Chalabi on the relationship between antidepressant prescriptions and the amount of greenery where you live. A real reminder to incorporate bursts of nature into our day whenever we can do so.

What we're watching:
This VIG (Very Important Goat) video from the team at Epic Masjid, featuring Dr Yasir Qadhi, made us giggle.

What we're listening to:
Nasheed artist Rhamzan got us listening and re-listening to his latest track Dua to You.

What we're loving:
Amaliah shared a wonderful thread on their Twitter stream about the life and times of Lady Zaynab Cobbold, the first documented British Muslim woman to perform the Hajj back in 1933.

Jeem Juxtapositions:
We're awe-struck and humbled to have been head-hunted by the delightful team at Not On The High Street to be part of their Class of 2021.

The recent sunny, sweltering weather here in the UK inspired us to join some scientific dots from our recent reading and look at the role of light in getting great sleep. Check out the blog post here.

The list is a curated selection of reads that have featured in this newsletter, been mentioned in one of our Instagram Stories or have simply tickled our fancy. One thing's for sure: they resonate with our desire to inspire peace, purpose and productivity.

Quote we're pondering over:
Hearts cannot be quarantined — Basmala Beads
