We are different people in different places. We step into coffee shops to ward off hues of existential loneliness. We wander into minimal museums to merge with art and beauty. We bow our heads under heaven-bound arches &kaleidoscopic alters of light, in order to forget ourselves.

[Beenish Hussain @imbeenishussain]

❤️
The success of a physical space is not a/b testable, it’s intuited in the subconscious.. physical spaces with these kinds of abstract ideals are akin to how the natural world works. The emphasis being on the ecosystem, as opposed to individuating ROI of one specific component.

[Sam Sager @sc_sager]

love this Chris Alexander quote in @patriciamou_’s newsletter today:

“Each one of us has, somewhere in his heart, the dream to make a living world, a universe”

likely why the idea of “oasis building” resonated so deeply when @ungatedcreative shared it with me

Renegotiating your identity by @patriciamou_
https://t.co/wIYfSMkHoE

"You are both everything and nothing at the same time. And this thought, for me at least, is incredibly freeing. To continuously keep your identity flexible and open, is to be truly anti-fragile."

[Cissy Hu @cissyrxhu]

Highly recommend @_WellnessWisdom for anyone looking to go down the rabbit hole of all things wellness, philosophy, systems thinking, psychology, and good vibes. Appreciate you, @patriciamou_ 🌱

I always glean nuggets of wisdom that challenge and enrich my perspective when I read @patriciamou_'s Wellness Wisdom. Her latest piece on “good vibes and maps of consciousness” was no different

[Yeshh. 🏺 @Yeshhaha]

Love heals; Fear constricts. Courage moves us forward; Grief holds us back.♥️

@patriciamou_ your Wellness Wisdom newsletter on vibes was soooo good - it really just is energy in motion which is why it affects us at an intuitive gut level.

[Patricia Mou @patriciamou_]

✍️new essay: what do we mean by vibe checks? when the vibes are off? when a place has good vibes?

short answer: it has everything to do with consciousness.

While there's a lot that went into my own breakthroughs, I find that @patriciamou_'s recent highlight captures the essence of my experience beautifully:

“Don’t surround yourself with smarter people. Surround yourself with people who are free in ways you’re not.”
