Thank you for this healthy dose of wisdom, Amy.

What stood out for me most of all: "Here is the main reason that we have lost touch with our intuition: We are too distracted, unfocused, have short attention spans and have forgotten the importance of self-check-in. How do you feel in your body when you are comparing the choices you could make?"

I guess that's not a bad reason to get into a regular meditation practice, right?

Larry — yes, meditation is one sure fire way to train your brain - or retrain it back to where it was before we got hooked on our devices! Sometimes I just try to remember what that was like!

On that note, Amy, I occasionally refer to my iPhone as a "dopamine delivery device." Anyway, the learning curve with meditation is so very slow ... but it's about process, not outcome, right?
