Solitude is a big mind reset for me. So many of my most creative ideas come from my extremely long walks across Tokyo. I try to do these 10 - 20 hour walks a few times a year. My next one is next week. From west Tokyo to Chiba. It's becoming a kind of creative pilgrimage for me. No phone. Just a compass and my feet. Every hour I also do a creative exercise to help me connect with myself.
Brilliant idea, thanks. I thought my 2 hour walks were long (and beneficial). I need to try doubling that, then doubling that, then doubling that again.

2 hours is a good amount. I feel like after the hour mark it begins to to feel like a special journey.
