Wayfinding

Where and how do you exercise your way finding muscles? What is the difference between following a map, a GPS or your intuition?

[Wayfinding] The ability to navigate and orient oneself in a physical space.

CONCOPIAN NAVIGATION
With a GPS always in our pockets, we rarely think to develop our intuitive sense of direction.

But when you explore a new place on foot and allow yourself to follow your intuitions, you get the chance to slowly connect a city or landscape and develop your own mental map.

Spatial awareness is vastly improved when you slow down and take your time to smell the roses, enjoy the landmarks, take in the views and reconnect with nature around you. It becomes enjoyable to find your way, not just reach your destination.
