InTune With Nature

I loved reading bout how Harvard doctors are experiencing and being trained in forest bathing!

Oh - and you can do this year-round, even in Chicago! Let me know if you'd like to try winter forest bathing!

I was skeptical of forest bathing. But then I tried it alongside eight Harvard doctors who looked to this practice with ancient roots to address modern ills.

Tonight the super Harvest Moon is in the sky... well, it's somewhere behind the clouds!

The Harvest Moon symbolizes abundance, gratitude, and completion. It's a time to celebrate the fruits of our labor, physically and spiritually. As the days start getting shorter, this is also the beginning of a more introspective, contemplative time. Take time to appreciate what you have as well as release what doesn't work for you any more.

Oh, and don't forget to howl at the moon!

Nature is full of opportunities to experience awe, wonder, and gratitude.

Your midday reminder to walk outside, look outside, or just think about the beauty and awe of nature for a few minutes... you've got time and you'll be glad you did.

Did you know that a researcher from the University of Chicago found that walking outside for as little as 15 minutes can improve your attention span? And more is better!
