Welcome!

Welcome! This is a place to share how we celebrate & deepen our relationship to Nature. Here you will find stories, images, & ideas about wilderness, human nature, & soulfulness. Drawing from the experiences of everyday living, the topics on this blog include: forays into the natural world, the writing life, community service, meditation, creativity, grief & loss, inspiration, & whatever else emerges from these. I invite you on this exploration of the wild within & outside of us: the inner/outer landscape.

Monday Musings WRITING PRACTICE: “Heat of the Sun”

TEALarbor stories’ Monday Musings are quotes, poems, & practices offering simple ways to explore the ecotone of the inner/outer landscape.

 
Spend a few minutes allowing the sun to shine down on your face. Stand or sit quietly, with eyes closed, and just feel the warmth, experience the light behind your eyelids, release thoughts. Immediately upon opening your eyes, handwrite a list of all the warmth-giving aspects of your life. Give thanks for the ways in which fire, the sun, warm water, heated rocks, and summer climes sustain you.
