Life is about expansion.

Life is about finally seeing how everything and every experience is there to bring you to your Highest and Greatest.

Life is about finding your way to your well-being even if that is sometimes through tragedy and great sickness.

How can nature help you feel better? Whether that is with:

Your attitude Your physical abilities Your appreciation and gratitude

How could you ask yourself in whatever situation you find yourself, “What are you here to teach me?” Could you be open to asking this question rather than staying stuck on the problem?

Nature is a wonderful teacher. There’s such magic, awe and magnificence out there. Having the opportunity to live around little lakes has been a huge journey in understanding more about life cycles, and exploring the seasons with the wildlife around. I hadn’t noticed or paid much attention. It’s been fun to experience it, and be curious about what might happen next.

Having been in Montana, Tahoe and now in Salida, Colorado these last few weeks, I’ve been blessed to be filled with even more expansion and experiences. I’ve really come to understand how nature improves your well-being. It’s magical.

Sitting outside by the Arkansas River writing this blog feels so different. As the water is flowing, I feel my words flowing. I feel my being flowing. I am more open, expansive and connected. I feel the power of nature. I feel the messages and words coming to me.

My attitude is gratitude, excitement and possibilities. We were biking past this skate/bike park. These 3 men in their 20s were in heaven flipping their bikes up and down and all around. They were seeing how much air they could get, what tricks they could land. We stopped and watched them for a bit. It was unbelievable, nothing I could ever have imagined doing. One of the ladies I was with, said, I wonder if they have health insurance. Our thinking stops us and limits what’s possible for us. Could we instead see the joy, the fun and the benefits they are receiving from pushing, believing in themselves and trusting all is well?

Attitude is everything.

Nature can bring out the best in you. Yes, it can be scary. Ask yourself, how could you allow nature to expand you? Whether that is in your walk outdoors, working in your yard or garden, swimming, or any other way you can experience it.

How can nature give you permission to allow it all?

How can nature free you from some limited thinking?

How can nature remind you to check your attitude? Are you looking for the greatness, the magnificent? Or are you complaining about the weather, the bugs, or the outside not being for you?

Your attitude about nature probably mirrors your attitude about life and all that is happening around you.

How does nature affect you?

We are in Salida with our biking group. A group of them are fearless. Today they are going 40 miles in some difficult terrain. A small group of us are going to something a lot less strenuous, me included. I honor I no longer have the mindset that I have to go to the extreme. I love biking. I love the outdoors and a little challenge. I’m proud I’m more comfortable being okay with what feels right for me today. I can expand based on where I’m still feeling joy, excitement and a little uncertainty.

Being okay with honoring myself and my limitations is great growth for my well-being.
