We've all become so disconnected to such a powerful source in our lives, it's disheartening. I'm trying to swing us back to daily connection.
I've started stepping outside each morning with my coffee, just to stand in the deck and listen to the geese, trees, and wind. Looking out into the trees and field nearly instantly calms me. It's my little dose of mindfulness before I start the day. I've also started visiting our biome in the harsh winter months (and already to work amongst the trees and shrubs and flowers) - the second I step through the doors and into the plants, my body physically relaxes...it's such a wild feeling!
Anna, this a wonderful post and since you know me a bit by now, you know this is 100% what I resonate with. I do this every single day , it keep me healthy, strong and in balance, I am actually a living example of how much Nature heals. I stopped taking pills for high blood pressure . I just decided that I dont need it. Nature is my medicine and after that my bloodpressure is just fine. I am never sick. Have not taken any vaccines. Nutrion is balanced. Mentally and spirituallly Nature gives me all I need ๐ I love Nature๐ Itโs where I belong ๐
Thatโs wonderful, Tony! Itโs truly great to hear that youโve been able to replace blood pressure medication with the healing power of nature. Thatโs both brave and inspiring! ๐คฉ๐ฟ Iโm personally very critical of medications, and my family donโt use them at all. Unfortunately, this topic can be difficult for many people, and some are quick to judge โ so I often keep it to myself. Maybe one day Iโll find the courage to write about it, though. ๐ซ
Nature heals in so many ways! Water, the air, the colors raise our vibration, the trees have us in awe - My escape when I need to clear my head - Or just to have a few moments of peace!
I always enjoy reading what you write and I enjoy your beautiful Pictures. I will try following your advice on my next walk. What you write often makes me remember my childhood. Also this time. One of my good playmates - a boy living in the same street as me - and I often rode on our bikes to the wood just outside our town. On one of our trips we discovered a โpondโ - very low water- we could easily walk in it wearing our rubber boots. Here we found frog eggs. We collected them together with sea plants, brought it all home and we each made a small basin where we put it all, and then studied how the eggs developed to tadpoles and later little frogs, that finally jumped away.
Thanks for your comment, Karen! What a nice memory, and itโs great that the frogs got to go out into the world. ๐๐ธ When I was a child, my friend and I collected shells from the lake and kept them hidden from our parents under my bed โ until the smell gave us away. We returned them to the lake. ๐๐ฆ
You've made a really nice guide for people, to pull them from the couch and get them outside. Smell the air... touch the moss... walk among the trees. It's natures medication.

The forest is my sanctuary too. It feels like being held, and it gives distance from everything. Thank you for your comment, Kristine! ๐ซถ๐ผ

Thank you for your comment! If I can get even one person out into nature, Iโll be happy. ๐
Thatโs so true!
I love that we both feel the same way about this! ๐๐
