Here’s an invitation to sync to the cycles of the natural world instead of the clock or calendar, where/when possible.

Technology has improved our lives in countless ways, but we might have begun to rely on it a bit too heavily in some places — subsequently outsourcing vital components of our humanness. If we want to establish a clearer connection with our intuition, if we want to reconnect with our bodies and minds and with the features of our own humanity, if we want to rewild ourselves, then these are some places where we might want to stop looking to our screens and instead look up, or look within.

As humans, we all crave comfort and ease and safety, and it’s important that we establish these for ourselves through decisions and time. But for many of us, there is a point where the pursuit of safety or stability is no longer protecting us, and starts hurting us — turning into a cage that we become more and more scared to step out of.
