Deep work isn't always about being glued to a computer. It can happen while walking, gazing out a window, or contemplating uninterrupted. Managers can empower staff by scheduling intentional time for deep work, allowing space for focused, meaningful tasks beyond back-to-back meetings.

At the gym today, I asked a woman how her week has been. She took a long pause, probably trying to figure me out and said 'I don't know yet, it's only Monday'.
Ever feel like you've lived a whole week in one day? #mercuryretrogradevibes #caseofthemondays #whatistime

Are you familiar with the 20-20-20 concept?
If you work on a computer most of the time, it is helpful to set a gentle timer for 20 minute intervals where you look up (20 ft. away) for at least 20 seconds.
This gives your eyes and directed attention strain a break!

Setting up my work listening today and found this live concert. As I began to listen I found myself pulled to watch...incredible!
And, maybe not the best for productivity!

Essential. Endangered. Extremely chatty.
The characteristic howls of Red Wolves usually include a series of barks, yips, + sometimes growling, especially when voiced in alarm. The Red Wolf’s howl sounds somewhat similar to a coyote’s, but is often lower pitched + lasts longer.

On a hike this weekend and chatting away. After a bit of time I looked up and noticed this...the incredible beauty of the earth.
Just a reminder to look up and take it all in.

Whenever I walk in nature, I notice that I am not thinking about being anywhere other than where I am.
All my senses are engaged. I am Simlly Being.
When was the last time that you didn't feel pulled in many directions and could just...Be?

Prior to 2020, Canadians spent 90% of their time indoors...and a a majority of this was spent online. Our mental health is suffering.
20 minutes/day outside means your: negative mood dissipates, anxious feelings slow down, mind clears, memory improves, and you just feel good.

Last weekend, I sat by the ocean and felt the waves wash away my worries. 🌊 There's something grounding about nature's rhythms; it reminds us to slow down and breathe. When was the last time you felt connected to the natural world? #NatureHeals #OceanMindfulness #RewildWellness

Feeling stressed? Research shows that 20 minutes in nature can reduce cortisol levels. 🌲 Take a moment today to step outside, walk barefoot, listen to the wind, feel the rain on your face, sit under a tree. Your mind and body will thank you. #RewildWellness #NatureForWellbeing

Jetlag is wild. It's like your brain is stuck on airplane mode, and your body can't decide if it's time for breakfast, dinner, or a nap...so you eat snacks at 3am while questioning the concept of time itself. Anyone else living in a jetlagged twilight zone right now? #JetlagChronicles #WhereAmI

Wrapping up one of the most wild and challenging experiences.
Filled with curiosity, warmth, questions, delightful meals, and thought provoking conversations from my time in Dubai.
Wrestling with the comfort I've had in the past with travel and embracing the challenge to some core understandings.

Day 2 of Futures Forum is underway.
Questions today: How might AI support nature connections?
Can the technosphere exist without the biosphere?
How might we work to give nature a spot at our corporate and government tables?
Did you know that tomato plants emit noise when in stress?

How can we talk about sustainability without addressing the impacts of mass tourism and rapid urban growth on the natural world's capacity to sustain it? Geographic overconsumption is a pressing issue, often hidden behind the narrative of economic growth. It's time rethink how we define progress.

How do we hold the paradox of being present in the moment while considering, imagining, and acting for the future 100+ years.
How do we learn from our past, live in the moment, and take actions today for the future in mind?

Ever felt two opposing emotions at the same time? Like grief tangled with gratitude, or joy shadowed by guilt? It's uncomfortable but powerful, living that tension reminds us we're complex, resilient, and fully alive.

As the days get shorter and I feel more sluggish, I bring small moments of nature indoors. I have a cozy winter window with plants, diffuser, and some sand and shells.
Even on dark days, these can boost my mood and energy. How do you stay connected to nature in the winter?
