On those days when life just seems overwhelming, a walk outside to reconnect with the natural world is all it can take to find your way out. Whether it's a twenty minute walk in your neighborhood, a hike in a nearby forest, a day trip or a weekend away to a quieter, beautiful place, this time outside can be incredibly
restorative to our spirits. Don't run on empty: fill yourself up with nature.
October and November here in central Oklahoma are a time of color and beauty as the plants prepare for their winter rest. Every time of the year is exquisite outside....but autumn is spectacular. Outside is our ancestral home, whether we remember or not.
ReplyDeleteI am particularly fond of Autumn myself, Vegan Elder. You are correct that outdoors is our ancestral home.
