It helps to be more in tune with your surroundings outside. Many of us become disconnected from the land around us because of the pace of modern life: working 40+ hours, driving everywhere, and generally not having energy to go outside in our spare time. But even taking a short walk around the block each day will let you get in tune with your local climate. You'll learn what the temperature is like when the first flowers start to bloom, when foods are in season, when the frost starts to come.

Unfortunately, this may also mean you start to notice how out of whack the cycles have become thanks to climate change.
