LivSimpl Tip: Touch something natural

No comments

So much of our lives are spent in what I refer to as a “manufactured world.” For example, right now I’m sitting (OK, slouching) on a couch made with some kind of synthetic fibers in an air conditioned apartment typing on a plastic keyboard looking at a glowing screen. Far too much of my time is spent like this.

Try touching something natural. Feel the texture on tree bark. Run your hand through leaves on a low-hanging tree branch. Feel cool soil in your hand. I find that even walking on grass instead of a sidewalk can be a welcome change, and makes me appreciate the world a little more.
