How to Keep the Buzz

When I return home from a nature vacation, I feel recharged, re-energized and ready to take on life. How do you bring home that buzz that you get after spending time with nature? How can you keep the image of intense beauty, penetrating calmness and sweet serenity so that the recharge and energy lasts? One way is to take in nature with all your senses. The smell of the pine trees, the sounds of the coyotes singing in the morning sun, the taste of fresh cold water filtered from a pristine lake, the feel of the rough granite on soft hands, the sight of the mountains that reside on the horizon in every direction. Simply take a picture with your mind. Picture yourself in the scene, sitting by a lake admiring its reflection, hiking up a lofty granite slope, feeling swept away as a raven flaps overhead, feeling the heat of the sun and the coolness of the night. These memories are yours and you can call upon them whenever you need a little energy boost. Take a picture with your mind and hold it for as long as you can.
