“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.” – Anais Nin

Turn off your cell phone — really and truly, totally off — for several hours today.
Technology can be addictive, and it can change the core of who we are as people. Researchers believe that when we are over-connected to technology (including our email, the Internet, and our cell phones) we can become more impatient, impulsive, forgetful — and even more self-centered.

Take Action: This week, designate time to fully unplug. Perhaps you unplug during dinner, or from 9:00 pm to 9:00 am.

Murmuration from Islands & Rivers on Vimeo.
This video fills me with awe for the natural world, and all that we do not know.
When this flock of Starlings turns in unison, it’s called a phase transition. Scientists have studied this phenomenon, and they relate it more to physics than biology. However, they don’t yet fully understand why or how this “murmeration” occurs. Learn more about this here.
