Living life in the fast lane can be very satisfying. Running on adrenaline keeps you energised and buzzing but it has drawbacks too. In the hectic pace of living a busy life, even one you love, your stress hormones are circulating constantly through your body and this can have a significant impact on your longer term health. You might not feel it in the moment, but over time the impact can affect your health including your mental health. There can be silent wear and tear going on in the background affecting your gut, your nervous system and other systems in your body.
Bringing a slower pace to your life, even for just a small part of your day, can invite a healthier balance for your body and mind. Just a few minutes a day connecting with nature is a perfect way to start a new habit of resting and re-energising and restoring your inner balance.
In this episode Kathryn shares a simple daily routine to connect with nature that helps you to draw on the benefits of slower living.
