The Cure of Nature

The other night I decided to sit outside and take in the sights of nature. So I sat on my porch and started looking around at my garden; bees were landing on flowers, the wind was blowing over the rose bush and the clouds were really essential to the light blue sky.

I was having a really stressful day and nature was surprisingly calming my nerves. When I stepped outside, I only really wanted to get away from it all and just clear my mind but it was so relaxing to just sit and watch nature take it's course.

Next to me, I saw Silver Dollar Plants (also known as the "Honesty Plant") and decided to pick their round disks and release their seeds. How beautiful this transparent plant became as I released the rest of the seeds into the soil for more to grow. These plants turn into such beautiful purple flowers as they grow in gardens.

Looking at the garden, I saw beautiful colors of light pinks, whites, purples, and green of course. The flowers and plants were all complimenting each other to create a vibrant scene.

I never thought when I went out to sit on my porch that I could get such a great amount of relaxation by enjoying nature. All of my anxiety was gone and life was good again.


Anyone else have any relaxation techniques?
