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 NATURE PRACTICE: “Transitions”

TEALarbor stories’ Monday Musings are practices and quotations offering simple ways to explore the ecotone of the inner/outer landscape. 

 
Step outside and slowly breathe in the air. Lightly notice your surroundings as they are right now. Commit to paying attention to the small seasonal changes in a particular creature’s behavior, the tree leaves, air temperature, angles of sunrise and sunset, or the shifting light. You can do this as you go about your everyday business moving outside, through the world—seeing the tiny shifts that manifest change; also look inward to notice the small “seasonal” shifts in your internal landscape.
