Nature Soothes

N A T U R E | Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
—John Muir

It’s true too, and not just about your cares. Research on patients in the hospital who have views overlooking green space shows that those patients recover faster and experience less pain than those who don’t. To be in it, is even more powerful. That’s good news.

We’re back on the family farm for the next two weeks to be here for my father-in-laws’ heart surgery and early recovery. We found out a few weeks ago, after a number of weeks of chest pains and tests, that he needed double bypass surgery. So, for the next couple weeks, I’ll be spending a lot of time with family and my father-in-law on the farm, under canopy of the thousands of trees here, living the healing power of them. #liveyourwell
