Impossible? Not at all! Our calendar is free and brings you a daily philosophical insight with an image and a short exercise. The first and overarching exercise, of course, is patience—only one door per day!
Each image contains one or more hidden letters. When correctly arranged, they will form a meaningful phrase in our puzzle rally at the end. More details will follow as Advent progresses.
Feel free to leave comments with suggestions or share your personal experiences with the exercises. The most productive contributions will be published. Write directly in the comments below or contact us via email at admin@yourpaceyourplace.com.
Our calendar is a small pilot project for an 52 week philosophical calendar. If you like this idea, sign up for our mailing list, and we’ll keep you informed.
Share the calendar with your friends (and enemies—everyone can benefit from it 😁).
Have fun!
