Daily we have to make it a point to see beauty in nature. This beauty has the power to heal us. Daily we need to keep aside some time to go for a long walk in nature. It will really be a boon if we can go for a walk in the morning and in the evening. Walking in nature is very therapeutic. The more problems we have, the more time we should spend in nature. To savor the beauty of nature, we need to let go our preoccupation with our thoughts. If we are already full, how can we receive anything? So, consciously, during this walk, drop all worries of the mind. From time to time we should just empty ourselves. Don’t we all get tired of carrying burdens of life?
To have balance in life, one must spend time with nature. One will be a happier and a healthier person. I am sure there are many people in this world who have not seen a sunrise or a sunset. Have you seen a flock of birds flying? It just takes your breath away. These birds are so much full of energy, vitality, and enthusiasm. They don't even own any houses or have any bank accounts. I don’t see any signs of worries in them. Not only birds, you might see squirrels chasing each other, ducks, cranes, butterflies etc. Relax in sounds of nature like a chirping of birds, a murmur of leaves. Pay attention to a variety of flowers, majestic trees. During sunrise, the eastern sky gets filled with a golden hue. One can see beautiful scenes of a variety of colors in the sky. Morning sunlight is good for health. We get our quota of vitamin D. Wake up early in the morning and spend time in the fresh air.
I remember while growing up, my father used to tell me the benefits of looking at the sky. By looking at the sky, one feels more spacious inside. One feels less constricted. It is nice to see various shapes of clouds in the sky too. Sometimes one can see a pure blue sky with no clouds at all. Both offer their own beauty. With the advancement of technology, we don't have to distant ourselves from nature. Nowadays, we are spending more time indoors and online. Daily we should soak ourselves in the beauty of nature. One becomes a more contented, positive and peaceful person. By becoming a peaceful person, we are contributing to the peace of the world. A peaceful person will only transmit peaceful vibrations which are healthy for everybody.
I would like to share a personal note with you. I have a picnic bench in my backyard. I have put a mosquito net around it. This way mosquitoes don’t bother me. I am even writing this post from inside this setup. Mild wind is blowing. I can hear the chirping of birds. To me relaxing like this is worth more than a million dollars.
I wish you peace in your life.
