Greetings from the state of Washington! I’m excited for a spring-fling trip out West to visit friends and family here, in Oregon and in California. Here are a few things that have been enchanting me lately.
Surprising way to create a joyous workout habit
I am loving the gorgeous vistas, euphoric music, and light cardio — of virtual reality! With my new Meta Quest headset and the brilliant Supernatural app, it has never been so easy and fun to maintain a daily workout habit. These days I’m dancing Disney hits, Broadway musicals, and epic works of classical music, in this weird and wonderful new space. Thanks to my friends Avik and Hikari for supernaturalizing me!
Simple habit for civic health and voter turnout
In 2020 and 2022 I participated in VoteForward’s highly strategic, research-driven letter-writing campaigns to increase voter turnout with low-propensity voters. It was incredibly rewarding! VoteForward has just kicked off their 2024 campaigns. Stefan and I and some friends are making commitments to write and keep each other motivated between now and the election — reply if you’d like to join us!
Favorite video to share with children
My favorite things to do with children are to create meals and go on walks. But, every now and then it’s nice to watch an inspiring video, too. The kids in my life have been transfixed by the many voices and outfits of Jacob Collier in his maximalistic, playful, ultra-polyvocal Moon River video.
Have a beautiful week everyone.
