Step 9Execute the measures, get new activities and join our healing web
By now, you probably read the "Okinawa-program" in which the principle of the healing web or yuimaru is explained (consisting of groups of friends/relatives working together to a common goal; also called a moai's). As mentioned in my MotivationAndAmbition-text file (added again below), I am trying to influence and set-up a greater action with this instructable. It is my intention of creating a same "spider web" weaving across the internet/world to change people's way-of-life. Now that you read my suggestions to change your lifestyle, I am hoping that you may execute them in practice. After this, as your life will be much more simple and as now some spare time may have become available (eg trough step 6, step 7, ...), you may start putting in place some new hobbies/activities.
A new activity you can first devote yourself to (inmediatelly after executing the measures described) is to arrange your garden ecologically. By this I mean putting in stuff as xeriscaping techniques, mulches, trees and plants native to the environment, gravel pathways, shelters for natural predators (eg turnaround flowerpots for dermaptera-species, ...). This will get our garden less labour-intensive (simplifying life for us some more) and will improve nature. After this, we may pick up gardening (which will be reduced to the fun stuff; thus eg berry picking and espaliering instead of mowing lawns) as a next activity to keep healthy, sun-covered and occupied. An alternative (which is environmentally better) is to completely discard our garden and replace it with the plants of our food cultivation system. Any remaining "garden" may be then be transformed to a natural environment, where our animal/insect friends may gather. This space, (aswell as all other areas around; thus even city gardens and city benches) may then be used for us to function as a garden (without any work).
A next activity you may devote yourself to is to join me in on my quest to create the environmental community I am envisioning. You may do so in practice by a series of suggestions given in the text document linked below. I am guessing that this activity could be valuable for the environment aswell as for you personally. A website has been launched for this purpose. You may offcourse also contact me directly trough my e-mail adress (environmentalprojects AT gmail DOT com).
In addition, if you still have time open (doubtable as you may also now be doing morning exercices, ...), you could also execute some of the environmental diy-projects from our compatriots at Instructables, Make, ... or set-up your own and or finally, play dice, card or board games as peralikatuma, RISK, or pachisi (the latter being offcourse less constructable).
I hope to see you around soon !
