Motivated by Nature

Motivated by Nature Susanne Heaton is the owner of Motivated by Nature. She's is a passionate nature ambassador. Susanne looks forward to connecting with you.

Motivated by Nature's goal is to reconnect people with one of the greatest natural healers and life coaches of all time: Mother Nature. With over 4.5 billion years of experience, Mother Nature has so much to teach if we choose to be mindful. Susanne started Motivated by Nature due to the healing effects she experienced from nature after dealing with burnout and loss. New scientific studies are proving just how healing mindful nature connection is for body, mind and soul as well as the planet.

I just started participating in Goodbye - New Zealand Outdoor Skin Care B Better Outdoors challenge. In looking for the light, I also came across 3 moose resting easy underneath the tree!

What do you see when you look for the light in all things?

The incredible Becky Cashman of Goodbye - New Zealand Outdoor Skin Care is doing a challenge for the month of March with some great prizes. Be sure to join along, tag others and get a chance to win some very awesome prizes.

LIGHT THRU LEAVES ** We are in the season of magic light- green and golden combined. Today’s mission is to look for where light passes through leaves, through flowers, even through strands of grass. This light allows you to see more of the structure within. It gives you a better sense of the relationship between light and living plant.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​The winner of B Better Outdoors first week's draw comes from Facebook- more active than the Instagram crew by miles :-) Congratulations Anna Maree, you are the happy owner of a $100 voucher.

Now we begin WEEK TWO!

** You are invited to B Better Outdoors **

It will be easy to read the prompt, and think “what a good idea” or “that’s so simple”. That’s the equivalent of having a gym membership and not going, or knowing that meditation is a good practice, but not actually DOING it. Nature connection is embodied, meaning you get to use all of your senses and body capability to interact. Even if a task seems extraordinarily simple, I encourage to do it with a sense of curiosity.

What will you learn? What will you see that’s been right there all along that you’ve been missing?

You probably won’t do every single mission, but give it a darn good go. You will feel better for the effort at the end of March. Invite a friend to join you, get the kids involved. They are more than ready to be curious and may help you see the miracles.

To Be in the Weekly Draw:

1. Follow
2. Comment on your experience of the day’s mission and/or tag a friend to join you.

The next draw for $100 voucher for Goodbye is Friday night, March 15th. Winners Notified by DM in Instagram or Facebook.

My friend, Jim Pescott Art who helped to kindly sponsor one of my online nature challenges, is asking for a little help due to being taken advantage of by a cryptocurrency fraud scheme.

This post was sent from a dear friend of mine and it resonated deeply with me. Nature has so much to share. I know that I am not alone with the many changes that have happened this past year.

I have chosen to take a pause and find a new direction with Motivated by Nature. I am looking forward to new beginnings. At this point, I do not know what this new chapter looks like, I am just surrendering to the letting go for now. I feel that winter is a great hibernation and incubation time for what is meant to transpire. I would love to hear any ideas on what you would like to see or experience more of. I have appreciated your support on this journey so far. Sending many blessings your way.

Our Story

I am passionately curious about nature and all the wisdom that she shares with us if we just slow down, look and listen. The creator gave us two eyes, two ears, two nostrils and one mouth for a reason. Let’s start using all of our senses so that we hear, see, smell and feel the magic and the wonder that is always there.

Through my speaking, writing, workshops, and walking my own talk, I am working on bridging the gap between humanity and nature.
