Survival mode seems to be the default way of being in our productivity-obsessed capitalist society. It serves a purpose, yes. It allows us to maintain our current way of life. But if that way of life is just more survival mode, is that what we really want?
How do we change our circumstances so that nourishing our souls is the default?
No change can occur without reflection. We need to take inventory of what depletes us.
Then we need to move our feet. Action is the only assured step that will take us closer to realizing our wishes. Even the smallest step does something.
