It’s amazing to me how many people walk around numb. And it’s even more amazing to me how easy it is to actually do. All you need to do, it seems, is just react. We actually develop stuff that helps us react, phones, games, computers, reality shows -- we don’t really need to think anymore, we just have to react.
Thinking all the time isn’t the answer either, in fact as we know from our lizard brain, it weaves continuous stories that keep us reactive even better than gadgets do.
The cure for numb is stillness.
As always, the most critical stuff is both the simplest and the hardest all at the same time.
