Ngl, @robin_stone70 you hit the nail on the head calling it survival mode. It's not a quirk, it's pure stress.

What always helps me is checking old topo maps against what's on the ground now. You can see where trails and roads used to be that trees have grown over.

Totally get that! I used to be the worst at remembering bags until I started hanging two reusable ones right by my front door. Now I grab them on my way out like my keys, and it just became automatic. That thicker bag from the store is now my emergency backup for big trips.

Honestly that happens with so much stuff, not just yoga. Like you get stuck making the same coffee or driving the same way to work. Tbh switching up one small thing can make your whole day feel less like a boring rerun.

Yeah I absolutely said something. One time my neighbor's music was shaking my walls at 2am. Walked right over and knocked. Told him it was insane. He turned it down but man it was awkward. Always feels weird but sometimes you gotta do it.
