It feels like a fast, or in
yoga we call it tapas. 

Tapas, is a heat creating
practice. For example, chating
40 000 mantra in a month, 
or being in silence for 20 days. 
Standing on one leg for a year, 
or never cutting the nails
on one's hand. 

I've done a few time these
practices. What comes out
of them is a change of 
perspective, a new reality 
is entered. 

Now the OCC might not be
as extreme, but it's a 
good practice for me. 

For example, my TV is a
dell all in one, 24inch
with linux mint installed. 
So during this week I can't
use it. But I've been quite
habituated to lay down in
front of it for a couple hours
in the evening. Youtube shorts
has taken over my mindless
browsing. And for the last
36 hours, I've had a few
near miss. Sitting in the 
couch, automatically, 
and then remembering... 
Ho yeah, not this week! 

I love this type of 'fast'. 
I'm already not on social
networks, nor watching much
news. So this seems to be
the natural next step. 

The walkman I got doesn't
play afterall! But today
I've been fiddling and 
I've brought home a few 
new tunes to practice. 
And right now, after
writing this, I want
to get back into illustration. 
Something I haven't 
practiced in a while. 

Oh, and, I think I've
resolved the battery issue, 
location, bluetooth, and
both the night and day light
were turned on. Now without
backlight, this epaper tablet
(from boox) feel even more
old school!
