I live an extremely urban lifestyle. Zero walks in nature, zero going out, zero camping, zero swims in lakes, zero cooking over a fire. I live on top of an apartment building at the 4th floor, I take a bus/drive my car to work in a curated, air conditioned sterile environment (hospital), I wear white clothes and work under a pale neon light in a white space. I look at things through my phone screen.At home everything is an imitation of wood, there's zero actual wood inside. Only wood-color. I haven't touched grass or a tree in years, maybe more than a decade. Haven't touched an animal since I was a literal kid, I don't even know what animal fur feels like.I haven't had a vacation in over 6 years (since before covid), not even a few days off work. Even if I had maybe 1 off day, it consisted of cooking something or going in the city at a restaurant, going to the gym, spending more time in front of a screen then back to work the next day.Any advice for me? Due to having cultivated this lifestyle pretty much all my life, I can't just drop everything and "go camping". It's not in me, i cant even bring myself to go jogging outside in the park (I would rather go to the gym). I am married, I have my own circle of people, i have my day activities, to go in the woods would be a radical tonal shift the likes of which I have never attempted. Every year at the beginning of summer/warm days I say I'd go out more and never actually do.I obviously feel something is wrong, otherwise I wouldn't make this thread. How do I start, what should I do? Things like going camping in the woods overnight are as alien as going in space, that shit is NOT gonna happen.
