Do you feel you have less time to get things done? Do things affect you more intensely than before?
Time is a construct, but it is also not a constant. Right now, the world is moving at a higher pace. That is why we feel our days are shorter because they are; we are operating on 18-hour days, and that also explains why things feel more intense.
Today, we sit at the virtual campfire to discuss the most significant act of rebellion we can make to fight time's acceleration: being present.
Throughout this episode, you'll hear about the importance of community, connection, and consciousness in our fast-paced world. You'll also hear why slowing down and being present might be the antidote for this fast-paced, crazy reality we all are in and why we must seek places where we can all win instead of insisting on creating winners and losers.
Plus, you'll learn about the negative effects of isolation, how to and why it is crucial to know where we stand in our polarities, and much more.
Tune in to episode 31 of Rekindling Ancient Wisdom, learn how to slow you and the world around you down, and gain peace through connection and community.
