First Nature 18 - Your Life Starts Here & Now with Shawn Berry

"Going out into nature is like looking into a mirror. Depending on which aspect we're looking at, we might find out something different about ourselves." Our human senses are mini miracles that often go completely unrecognized. There's a beautiful shift that happens when we are in gratitude to these gifts. Often we don't appreciate things until they are gone. Let's change that, here and now. Host Shawn Berry leads listeners on a guided meditative experience to truly tap into the magnificence of life and nature. He also covers the significance of the phrase "make believe", why NATURE CONNECTION is possible anywhere, and more! Highlights: [05:21] When's the last time you purely LISTENED?
