Nature is Medicine 🏞️
Sometimes it’s really funny when you see someone running happily in nature on social media videos, but have you tried it yourself?
Most of us don’t go out into nature, and instead spend most of our time locked in a house full of walls. But is this really how humans should be living?
In Chinese Medicine, one of the key factors to good health is having a strong unity with the rhythms of nature. This requires exposure to real light (sunlight & moonlight), real plants, and breathing fresh air.
Modernization brings us away from what’s really good for us, which is why terms like nature therapy, or forest bathing are becoming more popular.
Try spending half an hour in a garden nearby, or by a river. Don’t bring any electronic devices, or at least turn on Do not disturb. Set a timer for 30 minutes and just be.
Feel and embrace the sights and sounds of nature, and be one with the world again.
