Recently while I was on a break, I sat and wrote about how
Nature really nurtured my soul.
Listening to the trees rustle, sound of the sea, taste of
the salt, colours you see.. . As I wrote this I realized that all my senses
were being tickled. Life just slowed down.
What a wonderful calming and peaceful space. So grounding
and just being able to connect to yourself. So therefore, I was in a completely
different space, I felt.
Nature lifts me. It could be the mountains, the hills, my
garden, the sea .. anything away from the city life, I guess.
All my FB and Instagram Anjana Shamballa profile followers
will know how many photographs of flowers and sunsets I share. I just cannot
help it. They truly bring a smile to my heart.
Last year I had a lot of health issues. I went to the
mountains and spent a few weeks at my Sisters home. Definitely, something I
will never forget, as my recuperation was just incredible. Looking at the
hills, mountains, trees, birds, animals, stunning sunsets just changed my
energy completely.
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy
is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens,
nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and
that God wishes to see people happy amidst the simple beauty of nature. …I
firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles. Anne Frank
Honestly, none of us can always be on holiday. What can or
what should we do to feel this way more often? I want to feel and experience
this more often. How do I create this for myself in my home?
Each of us is nurtured by something different. Some need the
mountains and some the sea. One may need sun and the other snow or cold.
What are the sounds that you enjoy? The sea, rain, stream,
birds chirping, animals, waterfall …
What steps can we take to create what we want? To live in
that wonderful space? To keep experiencing our “ nature haven”?
I sometimes just remove my shoes and walk barefoot on the
grass – this is just a most wonderful feeling and very grounding too.
SIMPLE FUN STEPS
Find some photographs or a poster of the landscape that
lifts you. And place it somewhere that You notice it daily.
All the sounds, music, birds chirping etc. are available
online. Just get on and find the one that suits your mood.
Add some pine cones or seashells or colours that lift you.
Get some plants and flowers into your space. It really
helps. 🙂 And if you cannot, the no. of
good quality artificial plants available is amazing too.
I, in my office bathroom ( haha ), have tiles which really
lift me too. Here’s a photo.
Take a deep breath and inhale. Think of the place You want
to be in now. Remember the way you felt or you would like to feel there. Exhale
and feel that feeling.
Feel it, Breathe it , Create it, Visualise it and Live it.
Our minds are very powerful. So certainly use it to your
advantage by visualising what you want to feel.
Once you do that you can believe it and feel it too.
Enjoy spending your beautiful moments in Nature. Cherish it.
God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees,
flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they
move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls. -Mother Teresa
