Forest Bathing with Calina is utterly beautiful; it reminded this soul of the desire, a long time ago, to connect more intimately with Nature and the Earth. Thank you Calina, for your gentle yet masterful lead through the sublime woods as well as the open fields. The sounds of the singing bowl will resonate on into Infinity...

Meditation
To observe without attachment.
Meditation is a space always present.
Are you tuned in?
Spaces of awareness, to set aside the mental mind, to rest, an emotionally calm stable state, connecting with our heart space to 'just be', inside stillness and in silence.
Ask yourself the question - your thoughts, your body, If you can observe something, can it be you?
Meditation is a space always present, in reflecting, in relaxation, in releasing, in nature, in the space we ask for guidance.
Feel full gratitude.
Life is a mirror for who we truly are.
Tune in. Be Free!
In every living being is a seed, if the seed is provided with the favourable conditions, it will grow.
Observe without attachment, send your mind to live in your heart where there is the space to just be, in kindness, in love and in presence.
If thoughts come to mind watch them like clouds in the sky.
Why Nature Works
.png){kind=small}
Across the world, more of us live in a city than do not. Since the year 2000, human beings have officially become an urban species. We are also increasingly an indoor species, which is highly stressful. Our modern-day lives are exhausting. We are pulled in so many different directions at once, so it is no secret that high stress levels lead to an unbalanced lifestyle.
You will gain practices to include within the design of your 'daily practice' so you can access the stillness, silence and peace, which is always within.
Did you know, the earth resonates at a frequency of 432hz, which is the same as our body? Therefore when we connect to nature, we slow our mind, give our body a reference point for healing and to be with inner stillness and peace.
You may see the incredible beauty in the geometrical shapes. Did you see the spiral vortices created by the snail shell or the flower with 5 petals creating a hexagon? Have you observed the vibrancy of colors all around, while feeling rooted into the earth through your feet on the ground, listening to the birds singing or the wind in the trees? Are you inspired to creation through the beauty and abundance of nature?
Wherever in the world where there are forests, rivers, and oceans, we feel better. Trees and algae not only provide us with the oxygen we need to stay alive, nature speaks to us without judgement and we can go through beautiful transformations of feeling free to cerebrate the uniqueness of who we truly are in these spaces.

How Nature Works
Forest Bathing is scientifically proven to de-stress, strengthen our immune and cardiovascular system, improve sleep, metabolic health, weight loss, lower blood pressure and balance heart rate. It is not about hiking or walking long distances but rather doing everything in slow motion; mostly in stillness and silence while tuning into our senses to create a deeper connection with nature, and ultimately with ourselves.

When connecting with nature there is a lot of slow space, deep connection, where silence is a delight, where time shifts. Stillness and silence our greatest guide and teacher. Tune in.
Enjoy a digital detox, slow mind chatter, open to creativity, relax in nonjudgmental spaces, sit in silence and open our heart in circle.
You may discover your sense of smell is much more acute than you ever thought or you may discover; there are textures you can taste on the airwaves; your hands may touch the bark of a tree and feel the combined strength and flexibility.
