Sounds lovely. I do the same thing in our public park, but not as often as I would like.I have a decent size property (a bit over one acre). It's not quite meditating but once a day I will wander into the forest and sit. It's quiet, peaceful, and the wildlife is calming to simply observe.
I've always found that spending as much time outdoors as possible has helped ease my mind so I try to make a conscious point of grabbing that opportunity whenever possible.Sounds lovely. I do the same thing in our public park, but not as often as I would like.
I love outside. I would live outside if I could, absolutely. I love wild camping and used to do it frequently before children.I've always found that spending as much time outdoors as possible has helped ease my mind so I try to make a conscious point of grabbing that opportunity whenever possible.
There is nothing more calming than nature. It must be wonderful to amble through the forest and enjoy the wildlife and natural beauty of nature. Does it have any water flowing through it or nearby - that would be stunning to just sit and listen to the water.I have a decent size property (a bit over one acre).

You and me both. Almost 4 years ago we used to live in a fairly large city centre where the only noise was cars and sirens, not at all calming. We since moved to a rural nature oriented location and it's the best decision we ever made.I love outside. I would live outside if I could, absolutely.

It is definitely relaxing. If you've never had the opportunity to go portaging I would highly recommend it. You basically traverse via canoe through a vast network of rivers and lakes, setting up camp a different place each day.I will likely start again soon now that my kids are getting to the age where they can come with me. There is something relaxing about walking and then just "setting up home" somewhere in the wilderness.
There are two sources of water you can actually hear from the forest, one is a small creek with a slight trickle. Another 5 minute walk away is a river that are effectively rapids.Does it have any water flowing through it or nearby - that would be stunning to just sit and listen to the water.

I also have this beaut 20 minutes from home. There are days I've just spent hours here.
