    Approaching The Natural Podcast, health, philosophy, nutrition, movement, art, wellness, mindfulness

    If all we focus on is what we want to stop doing, we have no idea what to do in its place. There is a vacuum left by simply not doing something. Fix that by small stepping — taking actions that fill in the empty space with new, healthier behaviors.
