Peace in Nature

When I notice myself accumulating unhealthy patterns of stress or negativity, I know the quickest remedy is to go outside.

Watching the sunrise is perfect. The sun gives us life and I'm happy when I wake up early to greet it. It replenishes my perspective and reminds me that I'm on a planet spinning in an infinite universe.


Sit beneath a tall tree, lay in the grass, walk in the woods or park, plant a garden, go swimming, marvel at the most organic type of art that exists, growing and flowing effortlessly all around you.

Focus on your breathing and listen to the subtle orchestra of the Earth.

These are the types of things that will refresh and nourish you.
