Ways to feel connected to nature in times of quarantine
🌿 spend as much in direct and indirect sunlight as you can
🌿 stay near your window and keep it open as much as possible, breath in the air from outside
🌿 watch nature documentaries and movies that show a lot of nature. If you have Netflix I strongly recommend Arietty (and all other studio ghibli movies)
🌿 drink a lot, always. Try some loose tea if you can - not only will the warmth be good for your mental health, the leaves will give your monkey brain a stronger sense of accomplishment
🌿 look at your houseplants, as weird as that sounds, and eat fresh
🌿 paint or stitch animals, flowers, beaches, whatever you need!
🌿 look around online for natural sounds! Birds singing, waves, leaves rustling
🌿 read physical books, believe me
🌿 change your scenery. Hang pictures of nature, paint or print them out, or hang some leaves
🌿 meditate on nature and visualze the heck out of it. Try imagining moss growing on your walls and a stream running from your door to the window
🌿 take a shower imagingin rain or a bath imagining being in the ocean
🌿 light some candles and look at the moving flames, esp in the evening
