RE: MonoMad Skies — a parade of cloud floats

in #monomad7 years ago

Oh how my heart resonates with john Lubbock's quote @countrygirl Rest in the form of lying on the grass under the trees should be part of our every day routine. It receives us in so many ways and I am a great believer in "Earthing' or 'Grounding' where we absorb nature's healing energy and allow the stresses of the day wash away. Making conscious efforts to calm ourselves daily is vital otherwise the normal stresses we experience which are to be expected, will build up and accumulate. And you're right! Clouds are a constant source of wonder and amazement. Lovely images and post.

Cloud watching is a perfect mindfulness exercise....I've never heard of grounding or earthing....interesting philosophy. :)

Thanks for your input @trudeehunter!

I hadn't heard of it until fairly recently either @countrygirl But I can really vouch for the benefits and its so easy to do. We get the same results when walking on damp sand and whether we walk or just stand on damp sand or soil it brings great relief for the symptoms of jet lag too.

I kind of believe it, altho I don't know about receiving "energy" from the earth - I guess it depends what definition we put to that word. All I know is that being in nature, walking on moss or the sand or earth is very therapeutic.

Its probably too long a subject to explain here @countrygirl but if you ever have the time, check out Clint Ober's book on 'Earthing' It is quite an eye-opener.
