"Head Space"
Tales from the Trees 3/40
The third in my year long tree inspired series. For the past few years I've been working with HeadsUpGuys, a men's mental health organization. Every year we run a photo campaign to highlight men's experiences with mental health. This February we're sharing a campaign based around self care.
For me, the concept of self care and trees is very perfectly intertwined. When I'm stressed, sad, anxious, frustrated or need to step away from life for a moment, the trees and forests nearby have always helped. They're like emotional sponges, soaking up the worry and the thoughts and leaving me feeling restored and calm. I wanted to create an image that spoke to this idea that trees can be a kind of refuge for our minds, that they can recharge our minds if we spend time amongst them.
Do you find the same, that spending time in nature and in trees relaxes you?
