When you are heavy, you cannot fly – a mini meditation. Episode 13, #60SecondSanctuarySonnet

“When you think too much you make yourself heavy and when you are heavy you cannot fly.” – Don Juan Matus
Research shows that in a very busy life, small, momentary sips of nature can help to reduce pain, anxiety, stress, fatigue, distress & other physiological & psychological issues. (Kaplan and Kaplan, 1998) When we engage two or more of our senses in nature-based positive distractions, we double down on the lolly for our brain. There’s a recoup. A soothing. A little moment of safe haven from the thoughts that make us feel heavy.
