Nature’s Healing Touch


And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul” – John Muir

Such was my Lost and Found therapy wandering the Great Smoky Mountain forests.

Shinrin-yoku (‘forest bathing’) is the Japanese practice of immersing oneself in the wilderness for mind and body healing renewal. John Muir expressed it as …

Everybody needs beauty…places to play in and pray in where nature may heal and cheer and give strength to the body and soul alike.”

My ‘bathing’ was enhanced along the journey sharing the trail with this silent wanderer.

How many are your works Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.” – Psalm104:24

I M Blessed . . . May U B 2

Keep Looking Up & . . . His Best is Yet to Come!

    Did you pass one another on the trail? He didn’t run from you or toward you? Incredible experience! You look so close!

  6. It’s a bobcat C.A.🐱, not a mountain lion 🐯 !
    Besides, if it bit me it would risk dying of food poisoning 😀

  7. Yeah! I think my “bathing” would be enhanced, too, as I lunged into the water to get away before he decided I would make a nice snack!!😂
