When was the last time you unplugged for a day without anxiety or fear of what you may be missing out on? Does it feel like the catching up afterwards makes it not worth it? Don’t believe that lie!
Studies continue to show how important it is for our mental health that we step away from technology, and into nature. It is healing to our minds to wiggle our toes in the sand, or dirt, or to walk though a creek. When we unplug, we breathe deeply and choose to be present in nature, its like a mental reset. We can let go. We can let in.
When the noise we hear is the gentle breeze, or the birds calling, or the waves lapping, the anxiety drops. We instinctively know that its ok to calm down and relax. Its like we are made to enjoy nature, to delight in it, and to let it refresh us.
You may have 1000 reasons of why you “can’t” get out into nature crashing through your mind right now, and if you think you can’t, then you are right. But what if you can? Where do your feet want to wander? Where does your mind seek calm? What brings you back to life, from the inside out? How soon can you go?
Comment below and tell me of your adventures, I delight in hearing about them!
