it's increasingly becoming my opinion that spending quality time outdoors is important for your health. that's your ecosystem. your environment is an extension of your own body. as humanity gets increasingly interested and trapped in its own constructions you have to reorient yourself with what's real.
Especially in the years following the pandemic it's been so easy for me to fall into the trap of spending days staring at the same four walls and man does it mess me up. Especially in 2020 I had entire weeks where I didn't so much as step outside once. Sometimes I'd have these moments where my sense of the physical space I was in would suddenly snap into focus like a CRT degaussing and I'd have to take a minute to process how numb I'd become to everything around me.
Anyway, going on walks is some shit I used to think my mom was weird for until I got older and started doing it. It's pretty nice. If you don't and you're able, give it a try.
