How do naturalness, stillness, human connection, and letting go come into play when we are trying to establish habits and make changes?

It can be difficult to build up a natural routine, like getting up early in the morning, enjoying the sunrise, watching the sunset in the evening, and stopping work after that. We are constantly distracted. So, the first thing I try to do is avoid distractions.

Human connection enables us to give and receive support. If we don’t maintain our social connections with all our heart, we lose the ability to ask for help from people. Because every time we are in need, we think, “How can I suddenly ask for help without having a connection.” It’s great to have deep and meaningful connections, even if a person is not in your inner circle of friends.
