"In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
~ John Muir
I try to avoid using absolutes like always,
never, and every.
However, I will admit that walks in nature almost always grant gifts beyond those I seek.
What is the truth about this for you? To what extent does nature heal, renew, empower and inspire you?
My husband and I spent last week in the midst of a garden
resort on Florida's Sanibel Island. And while I love the sun, the sand, the sea and the shells there, it was walks in the garden that gave me the refreshment and upliftment that I needed.
Over the next few days I'll be sharing a few of the gifts I received from those nature walks.
Consider tuning in to what nature offers you today. Even if you are in a city or
suburban environment, attune yourself to the natural world around you. Perhaps stand barefoot on the ground. Or close your eyes and feel the wind. Or listen for bird calls. See what draws the attention of your eyes, your nose, your ears, your heart.
Watch for beauty, wisdom and guiding insights.
With love and reverence,
Charlene
