How often do you get out into the nature?
When I step outside the door into the fresh air, immediately I feel better. When I step into nature I feel like the environment is supporting me. Especially first thing in the morning I love to go for a walk or a run in nature. I find it clears my mind, nurtures my body, brings me inspiration. And on the being in tune with myself kinda note, I can hear my true self even better when the environment is supportive of my body. Fresh air, trees, grass, sun, water.. exposing myself to the 4 elements it nourishes my 5th element, spirit.
On a physical level why being in nature is good for you?
Japanese even have a term that means “forest bathing” (shinrin-yoku). This practice is known to increase immune system, self esteem, strengthens heart and lungs, relaxes, helps to charge up with negative ions that are beneficial for your health. We collect too many positive ions via Electromagnetic Frequency Polution (wifi, phones, computers, electronics...) which is detrimental to our health, so forest bathing, or walking barefoot in nature, hugging trees... helps to offload the stuff that doesn't serve our bodies and absorb that which is beneficial. It is said that walking bare foot is good because of 3 main reasons: fresh air, which helps us to detox and nourish our cells with life giving oxygen; beneficial bacteria and negative ions that create a really positive vibe :) and can alleviate depression!
So for a natural uplift and as an investment in your health, long term well-being and happiness,
go naturefy yourself!
Nature is nurture for your being!
Blessings for your day, may you take a good care of your lovely self.
