I’m toying with some new daily formats, one of them a weekly reader AMA. If there’s anything you’d like to ask NeilA (advice, questions about their life or the universe, or anything at all), just reply to this email. ✌️👽

The week is long. The joy of the weekend has faded and the next one feels too far away.

You catch yourself staring out windows, replaying beach days or cottage fires, longing for freedom.

But right now is still life.
Right now is where you are.

Your world is full of astonishing technology and natural wonder. But most days, you call it “normal.”

You swipe through a glowing slab of glass and forget the miracle of touchscreens.
You walk past flowers blooming through sidewalk cracks and call them weeds.
You eat bread and ignore that it smells like warmth and time.

Today, look again.
Not for big things. For small ones.
Find beauty in whatever you’re already looking at.

The moment before a storm.

It demands attention.
The light changes. The smell rises. The wind begins to whisper secrets.

You rush to close windows. To pull in cushions. Or to hurry home.

But in that moment, Earth reminds you she’s alive.
And you are, too. Enjoy the show.

Greetings, Earthling is a free daily newsletter designed to help you slow down, feel better, and start your mornings with a sense of meaning. Written from the perspective of a curious space observer named NeilA, each transmission blends mindfulness, motivation, and emotional insight with a hint of cosmic wonder.

Inspired by Stoic philosophy, Tao, Alan Watts, behavioural science, and the strange beauty of being human, these messages offer gentle reminders to live with purpose, pay attention, and appreciate the little things. Part alien wisdom, part self-help, part poetic dispatch, it’s a daily pick-me-up disguised as a transmission from the stars.

If you’re looking for a mindful routine, a feel-good newsletter, or thoughtful guidance that fits in your inbox, you’re in the right place. This is for anyone who wants to be more present, more kind, and more connected to yourself, to others, and to the universe around you.

If this helped, pass it along. Or send them here. Signals get stronger when more receivers are tuned in.

Thank you for reading. Your presence means more than you know.
