“Like a lever that must be pulled to open a door, the mind must see beyond itself to step into something unknown and propel forward.
Compelled by the natural world, recognising that seeing beauty in the otherwise mundane has the ability to change your mind and your life.
To quiet a racing mind and view the world from a child’s perspective, feeling the magic and sublimity in the mysteries of the earth.
The transformative power of awe shifts your consciousness from tunnel vision to an expanding realm of possibilities, feeling like a tiny cog in an indescribably powerful machine; this feeling of smallness that is both terrifying and transcendent.
When the world feels too heavy to function fluidly, looking to the stars or imagining the cells within a plant working in tandem to create photosynthesis, or how the cells that constitute us have been recycled for billions of years, somehow puts things back into perspective – nature must know what it is doing.
Slow down and let the moment take you; come rest in unalloyed wonderment and beauty for a while. Our tired hearts need it.”
