Retreating to Nature

In her September 2011 issue of Transmutation News, Sandra Ingerman writes about the Healing the Heart Study conducted with the University of Michigan Medical School’s Program for Integrative Medicine. Participants in the study's Medicine for the Earth spiritual retreat showed immediate, 3 month and 6 month follow-up improvement confirmed through testing the measurement of depression and hopefulness.

While Sandra wrote about many of the techniques such as meditation, guided imagery, drumming, and journal writing that were utilized with the heart patients who participated in a Medicine for the Earth spiritual retreat, I am noting herein the link to nature as it can help with regaining one’s sense of well being.   She wrote “ … And the earth, air, water, and the sun give us life. We went outside to sit with a tree as a time to relax and feel our connection with the heartbeat of the earth. And then we took short walks in nature while appreciating all that the earth, water, air, and the sun give us so that we may thrive.”

Connecting with the Indigenous Path

In the 2011 written words of Malidoma Some from "What it Means to be Indigenous" he says, "So, indigenous is a kind of connection that makes us one with Nature, Fire, Water, Earth, Mineral and the Ancestors.   Inside such a connection is a being that shows deep respect and reverance to all that is."

Meaningfully explore as well as embrace your connection for health, well-being and the fresh breath of transformation.

Give birth to your truth!

Namaste.

Embracing Nature for Wellness and Healing

"Traditional healing restores balance between the person, community and the spirit of nature."   This is a quote from "Get Green When You're Blue. Nature's Remedy for Depression"., a September 1st healthy living blog from the Huffington Post.

In the blog post's section on ancient wisdom it is referenced that within the indigenous Nuu-Chah-Multh community "it is understood that cultural diversity and biodiversity cannot be separated: They coexist in the same continuum physically, emotionally and spiritually."

Nature both beckons and awaits you therein delivering opportunities for wellness and healing.

Namaste.
