Nature Connection
The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.
—Joseph Campbell
Earth is our home. She is alive. The vibrant energies of life are imbued in her. Humans and Gaia are made of the same elements. Knowing her rhythms, cycles, seasons, inhabitants, mysteries and wisdom is a tremendous gift.
She holds the lessons that unfold her wisdom if we only take the time to be still and quiet and listen. There is a point within us that perfectly syncs with nature. Besides her water and air that sustain us, she has the ability to cradle us in such a profound way there are no words, just her beauty and deep magic.
~ humans are woven beautifully into the cloth of nature
Often our best medicine is nature. Her plants are a loving blessing given freely and we have forgotten her ways, her blessings and her gifts all too often. Tapping our innate intelligence into her innate intelligence brings us to a place of inexplicable knowingness and joy. But we tend to choose to lay our focus on other distractions.
We are an ecosystem like nature and we need to pay attention so we can adapt. Adaptation breeds resilience. When one thing is out of balance it effects the others. That is why herbal medicine follows the flow of nature to support the body’s systems to regain their balance in their own way. We need our bodies to be resilient and bounce back on their own without being completely reliant on drugs to take the ‘hurt or uncomfortableness’ away or rely on outside sources to heal us. We have the power to change our stories, thoughts, beliefs and patterns that make room for the transformation to happen. Nature connection supports transformation. Nature is in a continual state of transformation and she does it with beauty and grace.
A host of remarkable people, poets and herbalists teach us of the value and potential nature holds for us to become the unfolded. Their message has been spoken on the wings of time and the time has come to refreshen those messages. Feel the deep magic. Feel your essence. Feel the transformative power of mother nature.
