In a time not so long ago, people lived in harmony with the world around them. The shift from one season to another signaled a change in behaviors—what to eat and how to prepare foods, when to get up and go to bed, and so on. Our level of activity also naturally aligned with the planet’s rhythms. In spring, we worked more, in the winter, less.
This interplay is still a vital part of life in some places, but most people today are disconnected from nature, from each other, and even from themselves.
