Unplug from the Digital World

From the Green Renaissance YouTube channel:

As humans we are always trying to control everything. We think we have the ability to change anything that crosses our path and believe we have the capability to handle it to our perfect satisfaction every time.

But there is something important to be learned from the art of letting go.  Walking away from certain situations and painful memories is a step forward. It is hard to let go and move on, but once we do, we are freed from the emotional shackles that were holding us back.  When we stop expecting life to be perfect, for people to be the best they can be, we learn to appreciate both life, and the people in our lives, for what and who they are.

Grounded in Realness

From the Green Renaissance YouTube channel:

All too often life can feel like a competition to see who is the busiest. Our lives are filled with rushing, stress, anxiety and exhaustion.  Being overworked has become a marker of success, and it’s difficult to resist getting caught up in the wave.  We’re less in tune with our bodies and minds and there’s little time left over to simply ‘be’.

We don’t need to live life at breakneck speed.  There is so much joy and wonder surrounding us in our daily lives - we just need to stop and take time to notice it.  And it’s then that we realise that beauty truly is everywhere.
