We’re keenly adaptive. New tools, new situations, new challenges — we figure them out. We rise to the occasion.

But we’re not necessarily optimized for what’s new. Even what’s been designed for us might not be what we were designed for.

It creates a kind of friction.

For millennia, we observed things at nature’s pace. Scenes changed by the sun, the elements, and our own movements.

Today, we’ve learned to click, scroll, and swipe. An impatient unfolding of the next urgent thing.

We are curious seekers. But we don’t need to drown ourselves in news, data, and feeds.

A regular disconnect from the digital landscape can help us to reconnect to the physical landscape — the one that’s matched to our natural internal rhythm.
