Tuning into the Earth

I'm back to having to mow the yard myself after three months of a yard service doing it for me - no way was I willing to spend 2 hours in 100 degree heat & awful humidity doing it on my own. Since the weather has gotten cooler (it's only in the high 80s/low 90s y'all! Lol), piece of cake, right?

Tune into the Earth, y'all! Crinkle your toes into the ground, close your eyes and let your mind drift into oblivion. Let the trees' gentle swaying waft into your senses and your soul. Discover that you are of the Earth, and she is of you. You'll catch yourself grinning from ear to ear before you realize, recharged and re-energized to tackle the rest of the day. Ah, bliss, indeed ♥
