Mindfulness: Walking in the Woods
Here we follow Daisie from Wild Wanderings UK.
Wild Wanderings UK is an experience of feeling oneself as an extension of nature itself. You come to explore yourself, the individual, and to expand that awareness to the world around you. To walk and to be fully present on this earth, amongst these trees and on this soil is to experience the true state of peace, stillness, serenity and bliss that is our birth right. So within so without. Let's walk.
With thanks to Daisie
