The Gifts from Nature

Morning Mantra: "Nature is the purest portal to inner peace."Before Horse Hippie I had a shop called Back to Nature.  It was a place that honored the role of nature in my life.  It was a reflection of my love for the earth, a love instilled in me by my mother.  My mother taught me to see the beauty but also all of the ways nature is such a healer. Just think about all she offers to us:~Watching a sunset or sunrise can regulate your circadian rhythm and calm your mind.~Walking in a forest can boost your immunity.~Listening to birdsong can lower anxiety and improve focus.~The negative ions in ocean air can elevate your mood and energy. ~The scent of flowers boosts dopamine and serotonin which relieves stress.~Sunlight provides vitamin D, uplifts moods and regulates sleep.~The scent of snow contains ozone notes which refresh and clear the mind.~Mountain views enhance a sense of awe and wonder. Yet, with all these benefits, how often do we choose to let her heal us?  The next time you feel stress- hug a tree, walk barefoot in the grass, just sit and watch the sunset or listen to the birds.  Consciously allow nature to offer you her gifts.#BeANatureLover #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover
