It is only humans, perhaps, that expend needless energy in rushing to achieve or to seek something. Many times, these actions are completely unnecessary, for nature has innate rhythms that require immense efforts to overcome.
How do you make things easier?
Tap into nature’s rhythm.
How?
First, find a piece of nature to immerse yourself into, such as a park, a lake, or a small forest. Then, if on land, begin to stroll, or if on water, drift. Let the vibration of nature flow through you.
With water, if you can be in it, merely float or bob around, it is easy to feel the tug of water. Lakes and oceans are best. Succomb to the liquid that surrounds and buoys your body. For example, on a recent snorkeling excursion, I had a choice to fight the ocean and seek fish to view or I could float, drifting with the tide, thus joining with the sea. As I chose the latter, sea creatures began to emerge from nooks and crannies, offering me wonderful opportunities to see them, without striving.
If you have a park nearby, go there and walk the pathways at a slower pace than you would normally move. Observe the wildlife that thrives all around, but often goes unnoticed. Try not to let any worries or concerns enter your thoughts, thereby mirroring your surroundings. If it is freezing cold, bundle up and realize nature slows its speed in winter as it draws inward and prepares for Spring’s renewal.
As you tap into the invisible tides of nature, the flow of life, everything you do finds a natural ebb and flow. There will be times of rapid movement, then periods of motion so slow that all seems stagnant. Both are appropriate and natural.
Whether you stroll, sit quietly, or float, immerse yourself into the powerful rhythms of nature.
Remember nature is here to help you.
Try it and enjoy!
