We are always wondering how we can relax and refresh our minds and our bodies. Check out a form of nature therapy called forest bathing. People are charging you a lot of money (average of $50-$60/session) for something that any of us can do for ourselves for free.
Just find a park or a quiet place outdoors (you can even use your backyard) and sit and close your eyes and sit quietly and just take in all that is going on around you. You might hear a bird singing or crickets chirping or just feel the sun on your face or the wind touching you skin. Think about how nice and relaxing this is and when you open your eyes try to remember what you have just heard or felt.
When you are done (about 10-15 min.), fix yourself a small healthy snack and brew a cut of tea (choose a wellness brand) from a brand at your local tea house. Sit in that favourite spot and enjoy!
Do this a few times a week so that you stay in tune with nature and realize the beauty created by God in this busy world.
I am married and live with my husband and our 2 adult children. My oldest son is 26 and our other son is 24. The dog's name is Ginny. My oldest son was born with Down Syndrome. He is also diagnosed with a type of autism, and deafness in one ear. He had graves disease which is now in remission. My other son has Asperger's syndrome. My husband was diagnosed in 2018 with Addison's disease (rare adrenal gland autoimmune disease). So as you can imagine we have a very busy household. Recently, I was diagnosed with a thyroid condition and saw my health deteriorating and thus forced me back to examining "how did I get to this stage of health?" I have 35 years of medical background training and have researched many alternative health areas in a quest to help myself and my family. It is from this experience that I am hoping to help you come to an area of greater health in your mind, body, and spirit.
