Not only do we need the natural world to survive physically we also need the world of nature to create a balanced mental outlook. Just imagine what it would be like if we were wrapped in a physical cocoon separated from the natural world. Am I correctly guessing that this would be too horrible to contemplate?
The natural world is very, very important if we wish to maintain a positive mental attitude. Taking a break from our everyday routine of commuting and working is so very important. We need to factor into our everyday life a regular jaunt out into the natural world around us. We need to see it, smell it, hear it, feel it.
Imagine a week without seeing trees, the lungs of our planet. How would you feel without the smell of the ocean, the smell of rain or the smell of plants? Can you imagine a week without hearing birds or a week without feeling the wind blow past?
Difficult to imagine? Sure is… so get outside today and consciously soak up the natural world around you. Use every sense you have in the process. This is my medicine. I need a daily dose. How about you?
