Do you think, you know, you mentioned you're 71
0:05
Do you think with the internet and social media and our phones
0:09
our society has become a bit disconnected from nature and thus like lost some of its benefits
0:17
that comes along with just being in nature? Yes. Yes, absolutely. our human society
0:28
has become city dwellers more than anything else and those of us that still
0:36
go and seek out nature I think are more grounded for what
0:42
we're up to in our lives I would encourage everybody all your listeners to find some way
0:48
to get your bare feet on the earth get your person out in a, whether you live in the Florida Everglades or whether you live in the Rocky
0:59
Mountains or someplace in between at an ocean or a beach you know find a way to get grounded because that I honestly believe that that what allows us to push ourselves into our endeavors that make us our endeavors in society yeah I mean interestingly
1:19
like my fiance and I we don't camp we're not camping people but we do a lot of walks and we
1:26
walk around a lot of cities walk around a lot of places we live pretty close to the beach and like my favorite moments or him are the ones where like my phone is away and we're just like
1:34
walking on the beach or, you know, we were visiting as parents in San Francisco and we
1:39
were walking along, um, you know, the bay and with a view of the golden gate bridge and just
1:43
those like peaceful moments of walking and taking in the view and taking in the city and taking in
1:48
the moment, um, feel the most, I don't want to say cathartic, but I feel the most peaceful and
1:55
serene. And like, it gives you a moment to really process joy in your life and process what you're
2:01
grateful for and process the moment. And I think just putting away your phone and really just
2:06
being present in the world around you is so, so, um, beautiful and healing and, uh, peaceful
