The Walk for the Soul - inspirational video
Comment
I had a strong feeling lately that the Universe is wanting me to finally finish my biggest so far filmed project - the inspirational video which I was working on since the Summer, at least. I got the inspiration from the nature to create the short film (one of many :) ) about how do I feel to nurture the soul but it took a long while to figure it out how could I show to others what I feel when walking in the forest, for example. Not sure though if succeeded in that but here it is - happy to share with community my "newborn" ![]()
What happens if we take to the forest only ourselves? Alone...
What if we fully immerse in the surrounding greenness?
Imagine the forest like a huge bath and dive into it for a different exploration.
Taking time to reconnect with the nature, with our body, our senses, feelings and emotions.
Not simply walking through the woods or hiking, but engaging our five senses at each moment of experience.
Sight: Fully engaging in what we see, to the very finest detail
Smell: Focusing on breathing, slowly inhaling fresh air. Can you smell not only the flower but the moss, for example, or the bark of a tree?
Touch: walking bare feet, slowly stepping on the green bed of moss or the thick layer of pine needles, touching with hands as much as possible
Taste: taking some natural herbal tea with us and enjoying the taste of it in the environment where it, possibly, came from
Hear: the forest is never quiet, always full of sounds. Staying silent, not being engaged in talking to someone, but focused on what the forest is speaking to us. Can you hear the whisper of the wind, the crackle of trees?
How it may feel to be a bird or an animal?
To inspire more activities and how to spend time with selves in the nature I included in the film some body movement expressions to animate the impression of the possible emotional release.
To my personal view (and experience) the "forest bathing" is one of the most efficient ways to get the upliftment in this dense world full of conditioning, reasoning, distortions, control and so on. To me the forest (all the nature, but the forest particularly) is the place where I can relax the mind, release the emotions and connect to the higher dimensions at easiest.
I wish you enjoy watching ![]()
With all my love
