Nature changes your nature


Be close to the natural surroundings as much as you can and feel it and you will feel calmness and peace in your mind and heart and a change in your nature till you remain in that environment. Spending time alone in natural surrounding connects us to the larger universe around us and restores our spirit in this hurried age. Sitting in a wooded park and listening to the wind move through the leaves fill us with a sense of quiet and peace.

Savor the smell of flowers. Listen to birds when they chirp. Listen to soft music when the river flows through the rocks. See in the sky and close your eyes and feel every moment. Our priorities become clearer, obligations seem less pressing and mind grows still.

Communing with nature is also an excellent way to unlock our creativity and generate new ideas. Newton formulated the Laws of Gravity while relaxing under an apple tree. Natural surroundings serve to stifle the endless chatter that fills our minds so that our true brilliance can be liberated. Take off your shoes and fee the grass under your feet. Give a thanks that you have the privilege of enjoying these special gifts of nature.
