Be still and notice.
Do you recognize the plants, the shrubs, the trees, the flowers? DO you notice the beauty that is in your vicinity?
Pay attention and have a deeper connection to your environment. Notice all of the life there. Notice the beauty that abounds.
Quotes from the episode:
If you will stay close to nature, to its simplicity, to the small things hardly noticeable, those things can unexpectedly become great and immeasurable. -Rainer Maria Rilke
Go outside. Donβt tell anyone and donβt bring your phone. Start walking and keep walking until you no longer know the road like the palm of your hand, because we walk the same roads day in and day out, to the bus and back home and we cease to see. Charlotte Eriksson
The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not just the body, but the soul. βΒ Alfred Austin Growing with the Seasons
