Nourishing Body & Soul

Spring Filled with Life
As I think of Spring, I immediately see flowers beginning to bloom, sunny skies, I hear the birds singing, and the awakening of all life on the planet. It is a wonderful time! Spring is my favorite season. This year, I also see a lot of hope. Spring is time for change, a new beginning. We need to care for all life, both human and all biological forms of life. We are here to care for the planet and all the life forms that live here. Spring is the perfect time to consider what flowers to plant in our gardens and maybe create a special butterfly garden! Flowers bring joy to everyone’s life. The fragrance is soothing and the colors can be spectacular! Spring is also the perfect time to venture back outdoors and explore nature. Take in a forest bathing adventure and become one with the wisdom of the trees (Minnie Kansman is a great resource!). Walk along a beach and breathe in the ocean air, or perhaps a garden tour to smell those beautiful flowers! Maybe a hike up a mountain or even around your town.
Get out and feel the energy of Mother Earth, walk with the intention of sharing your Chi (energy) with the earth, with every step you take. I promise, you will feel better and lighter as a result of the experience. Share your love and even your woes with the earth as you walk and notice how much better you feel afterwards – it is amazing! A camping trip or a moonlight walk is also very uplifting. One needs a clear night sky, if you have that, look up at all the stars in the sky and feel the vastness of the universe. I love to see how many constellations I can find in the night sky. It helps to be in an area with little to zero light pollution to be able to see the millions of stars and planets in the night sky.
