More and more studies are reporting the benefits of spending time in nature: improved hormonal and emotional balance which can reduce depression and improve our mood, reduced stress levels and muscle tension, improved blood pressure and immunity, and the list goes on. The chemicals released by trees, flowers, wild grass, and all plant life, can aid in aligning our body with its original DNA blueprint and support the self-healing ability of our cells. During our hectic days we often collect ‘energy’ from others and even from our own thoughts; nature has the ability to absorb this. Why is this important? If the energy in our aura and the multiple layers of our energy bodies flows easily, most likely our lives will flow more smoothly than if we collect old energy and/or low vibrational thoughts and emotions and/or don’t process or energetically clear them.
