We all remember our childhoods outdoors; exploring in nature, hitting things with sticks, making dens, seemingly endless days outside with no screens to interfere with our imaginations.
Nowadays, competition for our attention is fierce and we have less time to decelerate, reflect, imagine our futures. We’re driven by our to-do lists, rushing to pursue goals without questioning their value. We spend far too much time inside staring at a screen rather than outside in nature; the space in which we were in fact designed to think best.
Outside, our attention is restored. We have different conversations, create new connections, form new ideas. We sort out our thoughts and we begin to build our own, powerful, imagined futures.
The wintering sessions, dawn till dusk:
