These days, I just carry one bag of firewood at a time—and I am proud to admit it. I used to live to push my body to the limit in every way. Less sleep, longer work, harder push, faster rush, whatever. Today, life looks different on purpose.Can I carry two forty-pound bags of firewood at once? Of course. Is that the best choice for my bones, mind, and the rest of me? Probably not. When I give myself permission to farm—and otherwise live—in a way that does not involve the constant maximum, I give myself the gifts of longevity, serenity, and the option to stay mindful longer—while making two trips to the house, carrying a gentler load. Let’s call it efficiency of spirit. #gettingwiser#learnasyougo #mindfulness #theproblemisthesolution #designforthefuture#permaculturefarm #healthyfarmer#selfcarewhilefarming#truesustainability#permaculture#permacultura #observeandinteract #practicalreflection
