For the past few days, I have been pondering about what to write and how to write it, not for lack of topics to do, in fact, I have a deluge of things to write about, but rather the tone/subject is heavy, not one that induces good feelings, lowers stress, anxiety and I always follow my gut/instinct.
I know for a fact consuming certain types of content not only affect your mental health, but your behavior, so I decided to postpone things I wanted to publish after the holidays. I will write and publish, but some of the most pertinent topics I might only publish at the very start of 2023, and write about other subjects.
In this regard, in my piece on building resilience I wrote, I would share more pictures of one of my favorite places in the world. After a little bit of planning and some sacrifice, I will finally revisit it.
The following are pictures of the types of trails I prefer doing, a taste I got since military training.
The view though is worth the absurd physical effort.
All you see here is a single property, fairly “common” around these parts, some years you could see cattle wandering around, others you couldn’t, never figured out why.
The following is a picture of the state of my brand-new boots after the very first day of hiking.
I expect this area to be severely different this year around, not the one with the view, but the trail up there, we will see and I will actually share.
I highly advise you to use the following holiday season as a time to clean your mind, and your body, and be careful of what type of information you consume. One should take huge care of their cognition, as much as they take of their bodies, and start the year with a clean “slate”, recharged. There are extensive, peer-reviewed scientific papers talking about the benefits of spending even 30 minutes in nature, so if you are able to, I highly advise you to spend some time in nature as soon as you can.
The first and best step to healing yourself is, quite literally, touching grass for a few hours.
Grounding (earthing) effects on inflammation (some strong pictures inside), the source of the quotation and the next picture, a different paper
Highlights
•Earthing (grounding) connects people to the Earth's natural healing energy.
•Reduces inflammation, pain, and stress; improves blood flow, sleep, and vitality.
•Earthing is a simple, profound lifestyle addition, requiring no effort or dieting.
•Earthing is a GROSSLY overlooked factor in health and healing.
•Earthing should be recommended by health professionals to patients.
Anything with a different title in the next 10 days will be either not my usual writings, me sharing interesting articles I found this year and I think its deserve attention, or pictures of my current “adventure”.
No urge in man is bigger than the urge to explore the unknown.
I will send another short e-mail tomorrow wishing everyone the usual happy holidays, but in case someone misses it, doesn’t read it. I wish all my subscribers a Merry Christmas, may your holiday weekend be filled with happiness, good times, and no stress.
There is no need to share this post, and there will be no asking you anything. I am very grateful for everyone who supported this Substack in any form, in any way, so far. May you be blessed back in double =).
Yes it is the best healing tool. Which is why they push "vaccines" and pharma drugs for everything, not just for the money, but to sever our relationship with the earth, trying to convince us that nature can only hurt us and Pharma and the Medical Cartel can only heal - when the opposite is typically true.
Thank you for sharing such beauty. I especially loved the owl photo ~ what a discovery!
