A gentle manifesto for intentional living
live deliberately. unfollow the noise. read poetry daily. watch shadows shift. read for the texture of a sentence. schedule solitude. unlearn urgency. leave gaps in your day for light to pour through. tidy your space. explore ancient wisdom. carry questions without rushing to answer them. let your hours flow. soak in art. savor the madness. let silence become a companion. embrace contradiction. linger where beauty feels unremarkable at first. observe your body. eat with intent. notice the beauty in fonts, leaves, shadows. don't multitask. sit still. find comfort in your chaotic, lived-in home. be in alignment with your body & inner life. enrich your relationships. create rituals for yourself. read something aloud to feel the weight of the words in your mouth. choose stillness as a form of resistance.
