5 Reasons To Unplug From Life And To Reconnect With Nature

Getting fresh air and connecting with nature is something that most people are far too busy to do on a regular basis. Hectic modern lifestyles often encroach on the enjoyment of the simple pleasures of nature. To find the time to get outside many people have to schedule it in the diary, around practical chores and other tasks they are too busy to do. The delights of disconnecting from the demands of day-to-day living, and reconnecting with nature, are yours to enjoy as a free regular and beneficial treat.

Modern Times

Unless you are a child, park life is no longer a carefree activity. Long gone are the days when people would visit the park to relax and get away from it all for a while. Most people who spend time in parks today are either busy devouring their lunch before heading back to work, or using the space for a calorie busting outdoor workout. Even texting mothers with toddlers in tow are disconnected from the beauty and benefits of nature. The same applies to a day on the beach or countryside rambles.

The wireless world of modern technology may control most of our work life and leisure time, but this doesn’t mean that you can’t unplug from your life from time to time. Getting outside more is essential for optimal health. When you disconnect from technology, and life demands and responsibilities, you have the freedom to reconnect with nature and to enjoy all of its benefits.

Nature Reconnection Benefits

1. Re-energize And Revitalize

Fresh air is good for you. When you get outside and spend some time in nature you can clear your lungs and get oxygen flowing. Unless you are lucky enough to work outdoors, you, like most people, probably spend far too much time coped up indoors. Detach yourself from electronic pollution and get outside whenever possible. When you visit a favorite spot in nature you will feel re-energized and revitalized.

It’s not always possible to get outside for a dose of sunshine’s vitamin D. When the sun is shining pop outside for a healthy vitamin top up. Breathe deeply to increase the oxygen flowing through the body. Take a leisurely walk or hit the hiking trail to feel recharged and invigorated.

2. Enjoy Nature’s Workout

Nature’s workout doesn’t require any modern technology or apparatus. All you need is comfortable footwear, appropriate clothing and perhaps a bottle of water. Take yourself off to explore the beach, countryside or local park and simply lose yourself in the sights, sounds and smells of nature. Practice mindfulness as you take a leisurely stroll and breathe in fresh air. There’s no need to work up a sweat or get out of breath to benefit from all that a workout in nature has to offer.

3. Reconnect With Yourself

When you unplug yourself from life you give yourself an opportunity to clear your mind. Reconnecting with yourself allows you to let go off stress, anxiety and worries, and to appreciate the things that really matter. Find a tranquil spot and sit in meditation for a while. Set the intention to let go and reconnect with your authentic self.

4. Rediscover Your Passion

Reconnecting with nature and your true essence helps you rediscover your passions in life. The beauty of nature will inspire you to follow your dreams, come up with fresh ideas, and to explore new possibilities.

5. Gain A Fresh Perspective

When fresh air blows away your cobwebs you can see a new reality. Embracing nature shifts your perspective so that the world around you becomes a more exciting place. Your new perspective is likely to also motivate you to spend more time outside and less time plugged in.
