Maybe it’s the menopause, or maybe its that I’ve finally succumbed to the habits of 21st century distraction, but my memory is a sieve!
I used to have a great memory. Now, not so much.
Now, I do what any self-respecting Gen Z would do. Someone asks me a question, and I open my phone.
And then 20 to 90 minutes later….
I’m down the rabbit hole.
I’ve taken to writing multiple stickie notes to myself. But even this doesn’t seem adequate, especially when I forget to look at them.
What tactics are you using to stay on track? What do you do to keep from falling down the rabbit hole?

I’ve never really been a fan of the tech bro motto, “move fast and break things.”
I’ve been taking a different tack, “go slow and restore.”
Not to say I haven’t been busy – but busy underground, retaining moisture, adding nutrients, contemplating different crops, cleaning and clearing, allowing a mineral wisdom to surface. Seeding the soil with the question of how to nourish a field of work with consciousness and care.
What might you learn by going fallow for a time or a season?
Super excited for Tensegrity Repair Series workshop coming this Sunday!

Bake-Off Fail. Take 2. Lesson learned = don't rush things and try again. True in baking and in life.

Parsvakonasana (side angle pose): The deep angle of direction, like a shooting star from the foot on the ground to the hand in the sky. What’s your biggest wish? Where will you find the confidence, strength, and courage to reach for it?
