Growing and healing while saving money!
Have we ever been overwhelmed by trying to balance finances and family leisure?
Oh, I know so well how it all goes. So here is one very simple solution:
Learn to gain more from NATURE!
Walk in a park, a trail in the woods, beach, and whatever we have in the place we live in. Nature doesn’t have to cost much. It only takes a little effort planning.
Once You decide where you are headed:
1. Think about appropriate clothing and everything you will need.
2. Plan how long the activity will take so you can bring enough snacks and water. Bring extra from home to avoid unnecessary expenses or discomfort.
3. Make it fun and educational. Pay attention to every plant and tree you spot, take photos so later you can research and identify it. Or if you already have some knowledge about plants, birds or mushrooms, try spotting them. There is so much to learn and explore just pay attention to the detail.
4. Think about seasons. Be aware of wildlife, poisonous plans, protect yourself from bugs, sunburns and potential dangers.
5. Do not eat anything unless you are triple sure it is a good edible.
Prioritize and make it happen
Biggest task is to prepare and think ahead, once You are there…. enjoy the bliss… Even if it is a city park for few hours and the only thing you may need is a blanket and few snacks for a pic-nick it will feel so good to breath air, feel the sun and be present, taking in your surroundings.
If you are up for a bigger hike in the woods, there will be a little more to plan, but it will be all worth it.
We truly heal our souls being close to nature. We are part of it! City life can feel overwhelming at times and we need a moment to breath, to pause, to feel humble. Earth is a big powerful planet that nurtures us in so many ways, and we are all connected.
Yours truly
