Balance Through Nature

It may seem trivial to talk about the benefits of flowers on an entry table or open windows to let in fresh air. Actually they can have a tremendous impact on wellness and quality of life. “Stop and smell the roses” is such a simplistic phrase, but it is a key tool to a more balanced lifestyle.

A couple of weeks ago I attended a workshop given by Laura Iarocci, who will be joining me on my Balance Through Nature field trip. I let myself be surrounded by her world of plants, flowers and the concept of creating beauty through nature and left feeling fully rejuvenated.

I hope you will consider joining me for my field trip later this month, but meanwhile, here is a link to the work of Ansel Adams. His celebration of the drama and subtleties of nature was groundbreaking. Take a minute to enjoy… and then see if you can join us on April 23rd!
