Nature allies are always available to us, even in a concrete jungle. Although connecting and being with trees, the ocean, a river or a mountain in person is a much better way to sink in to the wisdom it holds, the same can be done in the recesses of the mind.
Closing your eyes and tapping into that deep wisdom to gain insight can be just as effective. One of the reasons we feel disconnected from our relationship to nature is simply because we are being infiltrated by the shoulds, to-do lists and general have-tos of life.
Of course things need to get done. The laundry has to be folded. To realize that you can simply return to that simple state of being with your favorite aspect of nature can assist in reminding you of the essence of who you are without having to be “somebody”.
Nature is consistently managing to be with all different types of weather, disruption, erratic temperatures, deficit and excess that comes its way. This is a reflection of how to be patient with the worst and best of circumstances. All that encompasses nature and comes from the earth is our teacher. From the majestic redwoods to the disruptive power of a volcano simply being with each force is a medicinal blessing.
