Poet Walt Whitman regarded the woods as “the best places for composition”. He suffered a severe stroke that left him paralysed and it took him two years to recover. He believed his convalescence was aided greatly by his immersion in nature and its healing power. “How it all nourishes, lulls me, in the way most needed; the open air, the rye-fields, the apple orchards.” I’m getting a little mindfulness on today with a walk in #belfairswoods. Hope you get the chance to immerse yourself in nature. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ Pic by @jplenio on @pixabay⠀ #itsawonderfulmidlife #mindfulnessmidlife⠀ #mindfulnessatworkhere #mindfulmothermoment⠀ #mindfulness #beinginthemoment #simplybe⠀ #stoptheworld #mindfulmum #mindfulmother⠀ #lettinggo #letitgo #mindfulmind #mindjournal #midlifemotivation #embracingthenew #clearthemind #mentalclutter #mentalchatter #affirmations #gettingbacktonature #healingpoweroftrees #forestbath
