________
We feel stressed for not having enough time and guilty for wasting it. In modern life, the clock makes time a commodity, an asset, to be spent or saved. Clocks now define Time, not the other way around, and we just follow along. And meanwhile, time is our past, present and future, it defines our lives
So if life is defined by time, and time is driven by the clock, then in many ways it is the clock that drives our lives. But what if there was another way to be? What if notions of “saving”, “spending” or “wasting” time don’t really even make sense?
By the end of this episode, you’ll understand how you were naturally meant to perceive time, and how modern life, with its clocks and calendars, robs us of the attention we need to enjoy the passage of time. And finally, we’ll see how Nature helps us reclaim our focus and attention.
