InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

September 14, 2023


The focus for today is:

I bring balance and harmony to my body, mind, and soul
with quiet alone time in Nature.

Today's inspiration was written by Barry Vissell:

Give yourself time alone, quiet time for reflection, time without electronics or screens. Sit next to a plant, breathing in the oxygen that it breathes out just for you. And give the plant your exhaled carbon dioxide as a special gift for its life.

Bring balance and harmony to your body, mind, and soul.

Going for a hike on a local trail, perhaps sitting directly on the earth, or on a rock near a creek, can do wonders. Even sitting in your backyard garden, however small, can give you a taste of solitude in nature.

Today's inspiration was adapted from the InnerSelf.com article:

This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of taking some time to be alone in Nature (today and every day)

Comment from Marie:
 I love my quiet walks in Nature. I return from them recharged, refreshed, and at peace with myself and the world.

Our focus for today: I bring balance and harmony to my body, mind, and soul with quiet alone time in Nature.

Heartfullness: 52 Ways to Open to More Love by Joyce and Barry Vissell.Heartfulness means so much more than sentimentality or schmaltz. The heart chakra in yoga is the spiritual center of the body, with three chakras above and three below. It is the balance point between lower body and higher body, or between body and spirit. To dwell in your heart is therefore to be in balance, to integrate the lower three chakras with the higher three.
