Earth's Eye
“A lake is a landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. It is Earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature.” -Henry David Thoreau
Being in nature, or even viewing scenes of nature, reduces anger, fear, and stress and increases pleasant feelings. Exposure to nature not only makes you feel better emotionally, it contributes to your physical wellbeing, reducing blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tension, and the production of stress hormones. Nature is my favorite medicine and sure fire way to better deal with the challenges of life. Such a blessing.
Reflections on north Idaho's Medicine Lake, calm and serene.
Have a wonderful Sunday!
