The Healing Power Of Nature

For a couple of days, I have been down. Not physically sick but just emotionally and mentally drained as a result of some circumstances I am currently facing. It's funny I say that right? Are we all not facing this devastating pandemic? I don't even want to give "it" the honour of calling its name but we all know what I am talking about.

When I get into moods like this, all I want is stillness, I mean absolute stillness. What I did was to get a chair, brought it in front of a large airy window, withdrew the curtain a bit and sat in front of it. I propped my feet up on the window sill (the window is low) and just breathed. As I stared out into the nature in front of me, the greenery, the birds chirping, the wind blowing against my skin, I felt revived and rejuvenated. I could feel each cell in my body getting the healing it needed.

The hands of nature massaged me and took away all the stress I had bottled up inside. I released my self and just stayed calm. All along I was sipped on a hot cup of freshly made Black Ginger Tea (recipe coming soon).

Have you had it up to your neck with worries, stress, anxiety and the likes?

Practice this and you would be stunned by how much better you would feel! If you have a garden or you are close to nature, or a beach (after lockdown), get out there and just relax.
