8. "taking really slow, luxurious walks and just enjoying all sensation"
Quote Tweet
“stop and smell the roses” is such a stock phrase I do notice tho like, in moments of real freedom, one of the things I naturally end up doing is taking really slow, luxurious walks and just enjoying all sensation- wind and sun on my skin, and even the physical sense of balance

Meditation masters take long, aimless walks, with no particular relation to their (body)mind, as long and as often as they have time for, and it’s unwasted time; it’s time well spent, in terms of their values and goals and hopes and dreams, as it were.

I think I literally just solved my meaning crisis by going on a walk in the forest and talking to myself out loud and occasionally taking notes on a tiny notepad I carried in my hand
