A lot of animal companions (including mine) are reminding their humans to go outside and (re)connect with nature. Even though I love being outside sometimes in the winter it might feel too rainy or too cold or I feel I have too much to do instead. Gracie & Merlin will relentlessly remind me that they want fresh air (catio or playpen) which results in me getting fresh air when I go out with them or open the catio door. Once I get a whiff of it I am instantly reminded of how much I actually need it - even if just for a few minutes. I immediately get out of my head and look around me and notice the beauty around, like this fluffy squirrel & our camellias blooming & lovely moss patterns on stone. All it takes is two minutes outside to shift my energy. (of course the longer the better.) A few nights ago I walked down the driveway simply to get mail and was stopped in my tracks by a stunningly bright quarter moon shining over the pines. Pure magic just stepping out the door.✨
