Nature and us.
What are we if we aren’t nature? It’s no accident we are so much healthier when we live in tune with nature, I don’t just mean a lovely walk from time to time but to live in tune with what nature has gifted us, to live out what nature expects from us. It’s also easy to see why we have declining mental health among our population and why so much of us suffer with issues such as anxiety and depression. I wonder how much of this is situational. How much is caused by living out of tune with what we, at core, are. We seem to see ourselves as outside of nature, we have become so socialised into our contemporary society that we have forgotten the fundamental to our wellbeing it is to be part of what we are. Nature! To live Naturally.
I think that has led me to a great question to ask of ourselves, what is natural for us, truthfully, what would living naturally look like in your life?
For me it would be to spend more time in nature, eat natural foods, bath in cold water, sit in the sun, have my feet in the dirt from time to time and share in conscious relationships with others who are starting to understand that our wellbeing relies on us living with mother nature and not apart from her. This isn’t to say we must go back a few hundred years and live in dirt hurts, bare foot in the woods. However, maybe it’s time to integrate our every growing knowledge, technology, and lifestyles with nature.
Nature’s intelligence is unfathomable, the wisdom she shares is free, yet we are continually looking away from what she has to offer. Until we incorporate this into our modern lives, we will continue to get sicker. The key to our health and longevity on this planet is to participate in the natural order of things, until we do this, we cannot consider ourselves an advanced civilisation.
Nature has so much to teach us, nature has gifted us some of the most beautiful attributes to live a healthier, conscious, and amazing life.
We are nature’s consciousness manifest and are the voice for natural, quiet literally.
