I’m visiting my mom this week while she celebrates her 91st birthday. After the long flight, I was desperately in need of the nourishment of nature. I turned onto a country road and followed my impulses to go this way or that. I was so pleased when I found a place called The Iowa Arboretum with a beautiful Sycamore tree.
A little time in the fresh air under that tree was just what I needed to feel refreshed and revitalized.
It reminded me of this, the simplest of practices.
Take a few moments to nurture yourself.
Rest your back against a tree.
Feel the earth beneath you.
Look up and take in the sky.
Listen to the birds.
Find peace and carry it with you.
