Connect with nature

Sustainability

- Means meeting your present needs, without compromising the needs of the earth, or future generations.

Let’s get connected to nature, how you say?

•Take off your shoes, go outside, sit on the earth, and just listen. Listen to the sounds around you, listen to your own heart, feel your body being warmed by the sun and just be.

• Take a walk in nature, slow down and look at the beauty all around you, a fallen feather, an interesting leaf, the way the light falls through the trees.

• Tend to your veggie or herb patch, or start one. Get your hands in the dirt. Did you know that digging in the dirt will make you happier. As you dig the microbes in the soil are released. Inhaling these microbes can stimulate serotonin production, a natural chemical in our bodies that stabilises our mood, controls well-being and happiness, amazing.

• Learn more about nature. Watch documentary’s on nature.

•Learn where our food comes from, go and visit your local farmer, while you are there, pick up some fresh produce and ask them about it.

• Go outside and look up, remember as a kid how you looked at the clouds for hours making out shapes. Don’t forget to do it as an adult.

• Pack a picnic lunch, find a spot under a tree and go and hang out.

Happy Sustainability everyone ☀️💛✌🏼
