The Peace of Solitude

Nature knows you.

She holds you.

No judgement, only unconditional acceptance of who you are, where you are, exactly as you are.

You can smile when her clouds part and the sun beams grace your cheeks.

You can stand on top of the boulders and scream your rage into the waterfalls rushing thunderous crashes.

You can weep in a field of wildflowers, because once too- you were as wild and free as them.

It’s all composted within her.

All she knows is the innate rhythm and cycles of the seasons.

The decay, the inward wait, the rebirth and the fertile flourishing.

She mirrors to you a gentle reminder of your own nourishment.

Your own ebbing and flowing.

“Be gentle”, says her breeze.

“Be resilient”, says her tree branches.

“Be bold”, howls her wolves.

”Be mindful”, sings the birds.

Solitude nurtures Peace.

#natureheals

Was having a tough day but I went out for a long walk and saw loads of nice flowers, trees and birds. I was able to be present and my mood improved.

Managing my mental health is a daily priority. I try to fit some #naturetime into my day, as I find it’s very grounding. Really connecting with nature. I find it easiest to practice mindfulness when in nature.

Double Rainbow

After hibernating for 2 days I managed to get out for a walk today and I saw this fleeting yet stunning double rainbow.

A Walk Is Different Every Day

Walks we love become familiar,
Walks we do every day,
Some people ask, ‘don't you get bored? "I always reply, "No way!
"The terrain will change from day to day,
One day hard with frost, next, like slush or quicksand underfoot.
The light is never the same.
Long shadows, short shadows, Bright then dark.
If it is dark then light is nearby,
The light emerges once again.
The trees meet in the middle forming a tunnel,
The light spirals through the gaps making shapes to admire.
The dog runs and slips, jumps and barks, He runs back for treats, then goes again.
Trains rattle past, on mainline and branch,
The light reflects from their windows,
Do those onboard see the beauty that I do around me?
Yes I've walked this way before, And will again, more and more.
The old Canal is full with life, No boats remain but nature thrives!
So although a walk may seem the same, It never is, it always changes.
No walk is ever the same, Look out for new things, time and again.

Beauty #natureheals

I read that looking at beauty in nature is good for the soul. I believe beauty is a gift to lift our spirits. This little flower keeps blooming despite the cold, on my deck in Canada.❤️
