Nature anyone?
Nature has been one of my best friends. I associate pleasure and ease with being in nature. For me, making and taking flower essences seems to be a concentrated dose of nature’s healing power.
Well, what do others say? Here are three tid bits I gleaned recently from my research:
1. Visual exposure to settings with trees produced significant recovery from stress in five minutes, evidenced by changes in blood pressure and muscle tension.
2. Desk workers without views of nature recorded 23% more incidents of illness than those with views of nature.
3. Hospital patients who had views of trees needed less medication and had faster recovery times after surgery than those without such views.
So, go take a walk in the woods, or take a dose of nature in a bottle, flower essences.
