Slow Down. Find Yourself.
For thousands of years our ancestors lived and thrived in the wilderness. Endless grasslands, dense forests and vast stretches of green were an integral part of a place we called home.
But in today’s world, the green spaces are replaced by urban structures, crowded places and polluted environments. This rapid change puts an unwanted pressure on our body and mind. As a result we have seen that anxiety, stress, depression, burnout, chronic illnesses and other ailments are on the rise. Also as a society, there is an increase in anger, addictions, intolerance, apathy, and loneliness. Living in a hyper-connected era, aren’t we getting disconnected from what is truly important?
Let’s see what nature can do for you. Countries around the world are uncovering scientific proof about nature’s healing effects. Japan and South Korea have even created many healing forests where they practice forest bathing or healing forest walks. For our overloaded minds and overworked bodies, nature can yield surprising results.

Healing Forest 
The forest and the trees have an almost magic power to heal. I’ve been for a long time disconnected and I felt lost and without any joy. I am back to nature now and I cannot say how good it feels to be with the trees again!

Forest is very good for peace in mind. I often take my shoes off and walk in the forest. Is good way to prepare me to be grounded and peacefull for my healing.

As a young child, I knew I could go hiking and felt safe within the trees. Many emotions of my life have gone through walking in forests. I would just sit on a tree stump, top of a peak, where the trees on a lite breeding day, I could hear the trees talking and comforting me.
I had always told my family, listen the trees will talk to you. I really am a believer, trees and nature will give you what you need to heal.

I fully believe in the healing qualities of trees, forests and nature. My wife is an artist, with trees and nature as her overriding themes. I always communicate the ability of nature to heal when submitting proposals for art commissions. Its so important. Here is a link to her website http://www.moniquetippett.com/about
To stand before one of her art pieces is to feel the healing energy and aura of peace that one feels in the forest. I hope you enjoy.
