Question: What do Isaac Newton, Buddha and myself have in common?

Answer: We surrender(ed), open our hearts and minds in seeking inspiration under the Trees.

The trees have a calming, healing and inspirational energy and so if you get a chance this weekend, I recommend you go and sit under your favourite tree

Pain Relief from Nature

https://news.exeter.ac.uk/faculty-of-health-and-life-sciences/watching-nature-scenes-can-reduce-pain-new-study-shows/

There have been many studies in the past showing how running water, birdsong and even a painting of a tree in a hospital room can speed up the healing and recovery process but this latest study identifies the positive impact of nature on pain management.

My advice is not to wait until you're hurting physically and/or mentally before engaging with Nature's Health Service but get out there and use nature as a regular preventative medicine as part of your self-care regime and pre-first aid kit.
