Walking, hiking, or running without earphones at least once a week can help turn off the linguistic narrative and allow for inspiration.

“And my belief-- and this is a practice I do every week is I make sure that at least once a week I either walk or hike or run without any earphones. And I'm trying to get into states of wordlessness, states where I'm not digesting a podcast, where I'm not reading a book, where I'm not listening to a lecture, where I'm not in conversation, and essentially, trying to turn off the linguistic narrative.”
