I'm just really letting my mind go blank and just be in that present moment with the animals and the land.
I've become a lot more aware and in tune with the seasons that way.
I guess that's a lot of my time meditating.
It's like when I'm way out a hundred acres in the pasture moving sheep, I'm not really, I don't really have to be in a hurry.
I don't have anywhere to be.
Like this is the only thing I have to do so I can kind of take my time and just look at all these different plants and flowers coming up.
There's a bird species that I've never seen before.
What's this flower that's starting to bud on this tree?
Like these are the things that I'm thinking about.
I mean, I'm still working a lot.
Obviously, it's just slower, grounded, and focused.
I had like eight different jobs at any one given time in LA, and I would just be white knuckling around on my motorcycle all the time.
My jaws were just always just really tight and tense and sore from just like clenching my jaw.
Just a lot more grounded for the most part.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sounds nice.
I will say that my initial... I think that self-help books are just rote and banal.
They all just repeat themselves.
I've never been big on self-help culture.
