waterfall loops GIF

Hello everyone- morningsmiley Today I thought we check in with a bit of nature today. We all worked really hard on some good check-ins last week. So let's start this Monday out with just observing, and noticing how our body feels, what we hear. Nothing else.

Please listen to this link of the waterfall noise and focus back on this picture. Note what your are feeling and thinking here https://youtu.be/_RPjndlY-sc smiley

Hi Rumple,

Whenever I am truly mindful of the beauty nature has to offer, it is a healing experience. Within this photo and after listening to the sounds; I see timeless beauty, hear the power of the water and it reminds me of how the constant flow slowly changes the landscape.

It takes me to the lessons of impermanence of all things. It reminds me to be present, enjoy the calming influence and reminds me to pay attention to the details as they will only remain for that moment. In all of that, I feel strong as we all carry that gift within ourselves as well.

@RumpleSteeleSkin Hi RSS, I can't listen right now as I'm at work, but when I opened the post, before I even scrolled to your writing, I stopped on the waterfall and just did some breathing and imagining being there with the wonderful sounds. Thanks for giving me a little happiness today!

Nice one, There is something calming about water sounds. Maybe that's why I leave the tap running when I wash up in the kitchen. ( I know a naughty habit, I need to break.)

@RumpleSteeleSkin

hey Rumple, the picture is tremendously beautifull. This was definitively a lot of water falling down, it made me a bit uncomfortable.

Hi Peace good to see you todaysmiley aawww I'm sorry this made you uncomfortable. Water is a soothing sound/feel for many people.....but then for some water is scary. Can I ask why this made you uncomfortable?

@RumpleSteeleSkin

Hi Rumple, water sounds usually make me feel very well. i do not know why but somehow i just related it to Tsunami. Seeing the picture, however, had a big "wow" effect, the picture is very very calming 😊

Looking at the waterfall made me calmer, and the picture reminds me of a story where the bridge over ravine was a metaphor for therapy. So I have more motivation for therapeutic activities now. Thank you :-)
