When it comes to my daily routine, often I find the most difficult part for me right now is the evening, going to sleep, shutting everything down in a way that works and it gets me ready for the next day. Because every part of our day except sleeping, it seems like we have some

And I find it always interesting to come up with these new ways to structure time. Just because, as I keep saying, time is clearly the

As we get near the winter solstice here, shortest day of the year, I’m thinking about the daily rhythm of life. It seems like, of all the rhythms of time, this is one that we simply can’t get away from. Of course, there’s the yearly rhythm, which I love to really bring out and feel

The momentum of living life the way we do can be very strong. And of course we can use this to our advantage when we’re building habits. So if you start to do things regularly, after many weeks it can really start to get built in and baked into the way you are, and you
