"Just to walk on earth is a miracle." We are boxed into thinking that miracles are hard, and uncommon, almost impossible. Miracles are easy. It is here.
is it though? for some reason my mind is scared to accept its a gift...i find it hard to let go and find it marvelous and a miracle, even if i know that will make me happier :(
@@juliam2049 I think that if you assume that there's no hope for the magic of your life unfolding in the mystery of living with acceptance of the wonderment of life then that's your choice. You only sense the joy of being in the ability to be present in your own unique heart's knowledge of each precious moment. There is a past, the story of your life; the future is the unknown, which you are creating with your own emotions, thoughts, expectations and actions. The future is a mystery. So, relax and enjoy your life with loving kindness and gratitude for all of the blessings of being alive in this moment, now, it is the only time that you are able to trust in your reality, this instant is the magic. Feel free and open up to the mystery and follow your own path for your life now. Live in your power of being present in your best version of yourself. Being where you are now. It is so simple and yet we loose ourselves in our past and our future. Stay present and loving and caring, be true to your goodness and your generosity of love for us all and for the blessings that you have been given. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, I hope that what I have said is helpful to you. Trust yourself and believe in yourself and your powers of love and kindness in each moment. Blessings to you 🙏 Being scared,fearful and other constrictive emotions are all hindering your abilities to live with the awareness of the beauty and the grace of being alive. Trust yourself and believe you have the power to focus on your own unique heart's desires.You are capable of creating the energies of the Universe to work with you. Trust yourself.
I am happy to have found someone who thinks and feels about nature the way I do❤ I literally hug trees to connect to them... To hear their whispers... Beautiful creatures they are... 🖤Nature as a whole is something beyond words...

Pani Aniu Konieczna serdeczne dziękuję za możliwość zrozumienia tekstu, wcześniejsze filmiki po angielsku, bez tłumaczenia odbieralam niedokładnie, na tyle, na ile znam angielski. A są to wyjątkowe teksty, wyjątkowe spotkania z ludźmi. Bardzo dziękuję za Pani pracę. Dzięki niej mam pełniejszy przekaz i mogę lepiej z niego skorzystać. Jestem wdzięczna.
Pani Basiu, cała przyjemność po mojej stronie! Cieszę się niezmiernie, że polskie tłumaczenia tych rzeczywiście pięknych i ważnych filmów mają swoich odbiorców. Dziękuję za ten komentarz, nie ma Pani pojęcia ile dla mnie znaczy! Życzę wszystkiego dobrego! :)
You are perfectly fine. Me and my kids love being alone, either inside, walking or just being. You spend more time with yourself and you learn to love and understand yourself as well as your worth
Sounds good to me. A semi loner for life I have been. There is a lot of noise and distraction out there yo avoid. Creating is my only salvation so get busy. Cheers
I Myself love nature! Just when the capterpillar thought the World was over. It became a Butterfly! It is not as much about Who you used to be as it is about Who you choose to be? What a beautiful Story! It's got so much meaning! I can watch this videos over and over again! This people are just so REAL! Thanks for sharing!
Your channel is never a medium of passing my free time like other channels on TH-cam. These videos are pleasurable to the heart. Even when I resist watching any of them after all the virtual activities I know I would be gifted a beautiful perspective from it, I just go ahead. Also, the stethoscope thing just amazed me, that was such a benevolent gesture. Like always I again fell in for the protagonist.
Each video I watch just takes me to a place.. a place where I realise that there are so many who view life like I do... And that is the most beautiful discovery I've made here.. I feel so at home, so peaceful, so calm and within myself every single time I watch one of your videos.. I hope with time, I can meet and continually spend time with people who see and want to experience this view to life 🤎🤎
It's been almost 2 years since I started watching Green Renaissance . And Still, it takes half an hour to watch the entire film every time I watch a video. The films are so awesome that when you start watching it , you get lost in the beautiful words from these beautiful people and then you have to rewind the video again just to make sure you listen every single word. I don't know if its just me or someone else feels the same. haha :) Much love for the Green Renaissance Team Dev
@Manmoji - Oh dear Dev, to know that you relish every single little detail - every word, every image, every moment - you have no idea what that means to us! THANK YOU for being such a beautiful member of our community. It is guys like you who keep us motivated and inspired to keep creating. THANK YOU xxx
Grounding really does work but hard to do where it's cold outside. I remember as a kid running barefoot all the time. Thank you GR for giving all of us a place to calm our Monkey Minds. :)
Thank you again for an inspiring film. Great words of wisdom shared here! I work with teenagers every day and I hope to share this with them. The biggest tragedy I see in schools is the number of children who struggle with self-worth. I think this could really speak to many of them. Many thanks to Grant for sharing!
@Eileen Ippolito - Thanks for seeing the value in the sharing of these personal stories, and we hope that some of these messages reach into the minds of those who struggle and help them to see that they are valuable, they are loved, they are worthy x
Absolutely agree Eileen, wouldn't this be a wonderful video for all schools to show. I especially liked the part where he referenced the way trees grow. I worked with children on the Autistic Spectrum they grow in their own way and are just as valued as their peers.
One of the problems with social media, TV & advertising etc., is how they change the real people, real life! Obviously some people have it right, but most think life on the other side is perfect~which causes pressure, anxiety & mental health issues! Just be yourself & be happy if possible 🤍
We can't change the world, but we can change the way we live in it! Beautifully said. Nature calls us, but we are too busy and bury ourselves in nothing but unnecessary noise. I love all the sounds of Nature: running water, the gentle caressing of the wind from a whisper to a rumbling roar. Birds singing their songs, trees falling to the ground, rain and thunder, the sea waves by the shore, etc. Same goes for the sound of an open fire. All of it is cleansing.
@I. A.M. - Let's hope that we can all get back outdoors again soon, without restrictions and curfews... and may we never take the glory of our natural world for granted ever again x
THESE VIDEOS ARE THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO SOCIAL MEDIA.........TRUTH,HONESTY,LOVE,DEPTH,CONNECTION AND HOPE.........hope the producers are greatly blessed💕
Such profound beauty - visually, auditorially, emotionally, video production-wise ... thank you, forever and always. “Nature is honest” ... and don’t we all fundamentally crave honesty and unconditional acceptance - the very definition of and experience in nature? I believe we do. Each of us - every single one of us - belongs to and is a part of nature. To experience this, to feel this, is a profound gift - for life.
A $650 million budget blockbuster movie had me yawning. Yet GR has a drop of water in slow motion accompanied by splendid perfectly synced audio capturing 100% of my attention. GR understands that something so beautiful and breathtaking as nature is all that is required. GR slows it down for our rushed minds, just enough for us to slow our breathing as to be able absorb natures goodness and the words of wisdom. Big credit to GR and the tech production team who makes this all look so simple and smooth. Very time consuming to do all this 💚💚
@cb A bc - I read this out loud to Michael, and we had a good giggle. THANK YOU for appreciating all the small intimate details! We make these films just for people like you - those who truly appreciate the message being shared and the magic of the sights and sounds of our natural world x
Thank you thank you thank you!! For all of the content you post. Every one of them just reaches right into my soul and reminds me who I want to be...who I am at my essence! They always inspire me to break free from conformity and follow my heart!
" The earth is what we have in all have in common. It is what we are made of and what we live from, we cannot damage it without damaging those with whom we share it. There is an uncanny resemblance between our behavior toward each other and our behavior toward the earth. By some connection we do not recognize, the willingness to exploit one becomes the willingness to exploit the other... It is impossible to care for each other more or differently than we care for the earth ." Said, Wendell Berry.
@@ReflectionsofLife I am honored that I have a chance to participate in this way. You have given us a delightful blessing that opens up our hearts and minds in our understanding of our humanity and our empathy .What you have created is something that engages us and informs us all of the situations that we all have in common. We all need help in remembering what is important in life, loving kindness and gratitude for all of the blessings of being alive. You are creating the best version of ourselves in our truth and our humanity, we are witnessing the art of being present in our lives with appreciation and joy for our own personal journeys. I hardly even have the words to express my feelings for your help in the process of restoration of the understanding that we are all together as a family of friends. Love is always the way.
@Parry - Thank you Parry, for reminding us why we started out on this journey, and for confirming that through the sharing of these personal stories, we can all be reminded of what is important! xxxxx
Is it normal to tear up while watching this? I felt sad. I've been disconnected from nature since I returned back to Cairo, Egypt. I used to be surrounded by beaches, parks and the skies before coming back to this crowded city. I used to be at peace with myself and the world. I believe that nature is a reflection of our inner soul. I can't help but missing those days! :')
@Amanyta Ahmed - That sense of disconnection isn't easy. Maybe try to find more simple ways to connect - or try to plan small trips away to get out of the city for a day or two. You won't regret it. x
Oh wooow Thank you sooo much! This beautiful video came just at the right time! I came back from outside an hour ago and experienced the same feelings. I was so stuck in my head and as a person with depression it cost me a lot effort to find the power to go outside. Even though I know how nature heals my soul, once I'm there. This deep feeling of connection, of belonging here at this very moment and the acceptance of who and how I am. It just makes me want to cry out of the mercy and greatfulness that I'm experiencing out there. The calm sound of the wind in the top of the trees, the songs of the birds. To sit down beneath a tree and be there, fully aware of what surrounds me..to see through my heart, not my head. Step by step it really heals my soul. And your Movies helping me a lot as well! Thanks therefore and greetings from Germany :-)
YES YES YES I see the Light in every frame, I hear the Wisdom in every word, and I feel the Connection with all of nature... including humans, especially the people who created and shared this exquisitely beautiful film, seen on this Vernal Equinox! May it bring New Light and wisdom and compassion throughout our world. Abundant blessing to one and all from a grateful heart.
All your vídeos are amazing and inspiring. There is art in the images,the sounds ,in the way the messages are transmited! Thank you for bringing emotion and confirm that the beauty of life is in the simplicity and in nature.
@Janhavi Pakhare - Thank you for appreciating every little detail. It was such a magical experience to film and edit this story - allowing ourselves to fully immerse in the wonder of mother nature. x
I'm a big fan of the channel and of you! My father, who passed away last June from cancer, practiced Hatha Yoga (philosophy and practices) for many, many years ..... he left this planet at the age of 93 ..... He often told me to try Yoga ..... I always thought that Yoga was not for me ..... I had the wrong idea, I was ignorant ..... I was young and many times rebel..... When he left I was absolutely devastated, I had "lost" the great love of my life and, after some time of devastation in my life, I found a book that belonged to him, about Yogananda's biography. It was like a flame that ignited in my being .... since then, I am a beginner in Hatha Yoga, meditation, its philosophy, pranayama and asanas .... and, very importantly, I have read a lot and heard the classes on Vedanta ( Vedas) with a Brazilian nun who resides in India (all over the internet in these bizarre pandemic times ...). I have understood many things that my father said to me, taught me, in addition to realizing, now, the beneficial effects that Yoga has promoted in his life. I follow in search of who I am, my purpose here .... This video was like a cuddle in my Essence, my Divine self! We are more than part of Him, we are Him! Beautiful video! Thank you! I would love to be able to auscultate a tree with a stethoscope ...
@Mônica Lauber - Sorry to hear of the passing of your father. But that you are able to carry his teachings forward in your life and your heart - that is powerful. Many warm blessings to you x
Thank you for this - I actually needed to see it today. I am thankful that there are others who have similar sense of life, experience and connection in this world.
@Denise Savage - We love how that happens - how these films find their way to those who need to hear them most, when they are open for it. Big love to you Denise x
You're videos bring me so much joy, I resonated with this one so much, I love to be out in nature, hugging trees, listening to them with my ear pressed up against them, foraging for edible plants and mushrooms, nature is truly inspiring and brings me so much peace and joy 😊 can't thank you enough for these wonderful videos I love to watch when I wake up. Xx
So wonderful to read your message Veronica. Wonderful that this video resonated so much with you. Enjoy the time in nature and the mornings with a video. 🙂 Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Only comment: I have never forgotten my true heritage: Nature. I am lucky to be living in a small town at a small Island, Where we have nature all around us ! But we are so many people and there is still only this one planet to live on. 🙄🦋🐝🐛🐌🦎🐸🐳🌱🌻🌿⚘
Thank you for your inspirational words. These videos have a great way of transporting the mind and body to a different place. Love what you said about the 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳
Thank you once again for bringing us the joy and love of simplicity and nature. This gentleman has expressed so well that which is important for us all. 😀❤️😀❤️
Resonating words...feels good just to hear everything Grant says. So thankful for Mother Earth and for others living here and appreciating this miracle that we are :)
Ah-h-h-h...your films always make me stop and take a deep breath. Thank you for the artful way you elevate these important voices...the visuals, the music, the pacing...his words...I'm drawn right in. Right away I related to what he said about being an introvert. It's taken my whole life to see the invitation to find my own voice in the midst of all the noise & distractions of life. Thank you, Grant for reminding me how important it is to take breaks to "ground". Nature teaches us so much about the way life works. Our "breaks" can only help what we bring to our so-called productivity. Next time I go out, I'm grabbing my stethoscope!
I often think when I am sitting in nature and looking at the trees that have been there for who really knows how long..."oh what stories they could tell." The silent bearers of witness ♥️ Love this channel.
Loved this so much, and this man. I want to go hang out with him, right now, though I cannot. But I am comforted by the fact of his existence, and others like him.
Thanks a lot to the team of this channel. It's been a hard time for me dealing in this concrete jungle and my deteriorating mental health. This channel is my escape. Thanks for your wonderful work.
Great video, so rich in meaning. And what can I say of your photography, which capture those beautiful, fleeting moments in such a brilliant way... too good to be true!
This is so pure .. this is so healthy for all our components ...physically mentally spiritually emotionally ... the Global hollistic movement and getting back to origin is moving everyone now ..it is so deep that it Neutralize all our energies and we start to speak from within to one another ... It is so powerful all our spiritual barrier vanish ...when we all start communicating from within .. Thank you stay healthy but take the hand of others too so they experience this amazing energies ...💚💚💚💚💚
The more you travel, the more you see that there are so many wonderful things in the world. It can be difficult to settle for something great when you can see that there could always be something better just round the next corner. Travel can sometimes simply be about a quest for perfection. This quest for perfection that we are looking for,we found just now in your video so the only that we have to say on you: Huge thank you and keep going!!!!!!!!
I just saw a television documentary on suicidal young men and I thought if only they could see the world through your eyes. To be connected to nature is to lose yourself and become part of a greater healing force. Beautiful video
Love his last words.....we can’t change the world, but we can change the way we live in it......beautiful!!
@Gina D'Onofrio Longo - It's so true, isn't it 💚
Yes Gina. Great phrase!!
You are the best...You have mastered what others want, but they get caught up in the jungle...thank you for telling the world...
And thus changes the world ❤️
Woo
After working 12hour shifts feeling tired and irritable when getting home,there is nothing like sitting in the garden barefoot and just BE
@Michelle Berthold - We love that you find the joy in that quite moment of connection with the earth x
True
Your getting back to your true home by sitting still.
You don’t have my neighbours then! 🤣. Opportunity to just “be” is soul food. To be in peace and quiet is my love. 💖
People think our human world and what matters is the real world, when we exist in the natural world we realize that’s when we’re truly alive
"Just to walk on earth is a miracle."
We are boxed into thinking that miracles are hard, and uncommon, almost impossible. Miracles are easy. It is here.
@Genesis dela Cruz - So beautifully said friend! Thanks, and such warm hugs to you x
This 💯💯
True 🙏
is it though? for some reason my mind is scared to accept its a gift...i find it hard to let go and find it marvelous and a miracle, even if i know that will make me happier :(

“Nature is honest”. I love that.

This Channel is fast becoming my favourite Channel!
@R.a - YAY :). xxxx
"We went out to discover the moon, but when we went there we actually discovered the earth... a beautiful planet" - what a great quote!
💚
Love nature. So healing. It's my friend and my passion, my life:)
(we didn't go to the moon, and that's ok).
Every word Grant said is a gem. An introvert is always a great speaker who knows better in connecting himself with something much greater.
💚
💗💫😽🐾
100% agree
+1
Beautifully said 🙏🏻
It's amazing to know that there are still people out there who see life the way it is; not the way we, humans, have given false meanings to it.
@Jallal Malaguia - There are indeed so many who do care. x
.....lovely. 💜
I am happy to have found someone who thinks and feels about nature the way I do❤ I literally hug trees to connect to them... To hear their whispers... Beautiful creatures they are... 🖤Nature as a whole is something beyond words...

its such a blessing to see someone else who feels like I do, nature is a healer, a friend, a blessing, this film is beautiful

I was always a loner and still prefer my life that way. I'm not a snob. Is it wrong to prefer my own company? Nature just keeps on giving 🤗🤗
@Connie Holcomb - Absolutely not! How lucky that you are able to call yourself your 'own best friend' :)
You're fine just the way you are.💖💥
I feel the same way Connie. There’s nothing wrong with it, we’re just introverts, and that’s absolutely fine.

Thank you, such a gentle way to look at ways to cope with life in these strange times. I loved the reference to how trees grow in their own way.

Big credit to GR and the tech production team who makes this all look so simple and smooth. Very time consuming to do all this 💚💚

" The earth is what we have in all have in common. It is what we are made of and what we live from, we cannot damage it without damaging those with whom we share it. There is an uncanny resemblance between our behavior toward each other and our behavior toward the earth. By some connection we do not recognize, the willingness to exploit one becomes the willingness to exploit the other... It is impossible to care for each other more or differently than we care for the earth ." Said, Wendell Berry.
@Parry - Powerful words! Thanks for sharing x
@@ReflectionsofLife I am honored that I have a chance to participate in this way. You have given us a delightful blessing that opens up our hearts and minds in our understanding of our humanity and our empathy .What you have created is something that engages us and informs us all of the situations that we all have in common. We all need help in remembering what is important in life, loving kindness and gratitude for all of the blessings of being alive. You are creating the best version of ourselves in our truth and our humanity, we are witnessing the art of being present in our lives with appreciation and joy for our own personal journeys. I hardly even have the words to express my feelings for your help in the process of restoration of the understanding that we are all together as a family of friends. Love is always the way.
@Parry - Thank you Parry, for reminding us why we started out on this journey, and for confirming that through the sharing of these personal stories, we can all be reminded of what is important! xxxxx
@@parry3231 yes!!! You said it exactly. Thank you for describing perfectly how we feel about the videos. They are a gift indeed.🌼
Is it normal to tear up while watching this? I felt sad. I've been disconnected from nature since I returned back to Cairo, Egypt. I used to be surrounded by beaches, parks and the skies before coming back to this crowded city. I used to be at peace with myself and the world. I believe that nature is a reflection of our inner soul. I can't help but missing those days! :')
@Amanyta Ahmed - That sense of disconnection isn't easy. Maybe try to find more simple ways to connect - or try to plan small trips away to get out of the city for a day or two. You won't regret it. x
This is my most favorite video by Green Renaissance. Thank you.❤
@Amanpreet kaur - Thank you :)
Oh wooow Thank you sooo much! This beautiful video came just at the right time! I came back from outside an hour ago and experienced the same feelings. I was so stuck in my head and as a person with depression it cost me a lot effort to find the power to go outside. Even though I know how nature heals my soul, once I'm there. This deep feeling of connection, of belonging here at this very moment and the acceptance of who and how I am. It just makes me want to cry out of the mercy and greatfulness that I'm experiencing out there.
The calm sound of the wind in the top of the trees, the songs of the birds. To sit down beneath a tree and be there, fully aware of what surrounds me..to see through my heart, not my head. Step by step it really heals my soul. And your Movies helping me a lot as well! Thanks therefore and greetings from Germany :-)
@Anna Dash - Oh WOW Anna - your words echo Grant's story so beautifully. May you always find solace and peace out in our natural world x
Amazing beautiful video and message 💜🙏 thank you for sharing these words of wisdom 💜

YES YES YES I see the Light in every frame, I hear the Wisdom in every word, and I feel the Connection with all of nature... including humans, especially the people who created and shared this exquisitely beautiful film, seen on this Vernal Equinox! May it bring New Light and wisdom and compassion throughout our world. Abundant blessing to one and all from a grateful heart.

All words are spoken ... are true...thanks for letting us hear them.

This is food for soul ❤️

@Janhavi Pakhare - Thank you for appreciating every little detail. It was such a magical experience to film and edit this story - allowing ourselves to fully immerse in the wonder of mother nature. x
The pictures are so beautiful. The nature and you are so alive. Thanks
I'm a big fan of the channel and of you!
My father, who passed away last June from cancer, practiced Hatha Yoga (philosophy and practices) for many, many years ..... he left this planet at the age of 93 .....
He often told me to try Yoga ..... I always thought that Yoga was not for me ..... I had the wrong idea, I was ignorant ..... I was young and many times rebel.....
When he left I was absolutely devastated, I had "lost" the great love of my life and, after some time of devastation in my life, I found a book that belonged to him, about Yogananda's biography. It was like a flame that ignited in my being .... since then, I am a beginner in Hatha Yoga, meditation, its philosophy, pranayama and asanas .... and, very importantly, I have read a lot and heard the classes on Vedanta ( Vedas) with a Brazilian nun who resides in India (all over the internet in these bizarre pandemic times ...). I have understood many things that my father said to me, taught me, in addition to realizing, now, the beneficial effects that Yoga has promoted in his life. I follow in search of who I am, my purpose here ....
This video was like a cuddle in my Essence, my Divine self! We are more than part of Him, we are Him! Beautiful video!
Thank you!
I would love to be able to auscultate a tree with a stethoscope ...
@Mônica Lauber - Sorry to hear of the passing of your father. But that you are able to carry his teachings forward in your life and your heart - that is powerful. Many warm blessings to you x
@@ReflectionsofLife 💖💖💖💖
Yet another inspirational and thought provoking video done by my favourite film makers. ❤
Thanks so much for your kind words Christine, it's good to have you with us on our journey. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Thank you for this - I actually needed to see it today. I am thankful that there are others who have similar sense of life, experience and connection in this world.
@Denise Savage - We love how that happens - how these films find their way to those who need to hear them most, when they are open for it. Big love to you Denise x
You're videos bring me so much joy, I resonated with this one so much, I love to be out in nature, hugging trees, listening to them with my ear pressed up against them, foraging for edible plants and mushrooms, nature is truly inspiring and brings me so much peace and joy 😊 can't thank you enough for these wonderful videos I love to watch when I wake up. Xx
So wonderful to read your message Veronica. Wonderful that this video resonated so much with you. Enjoy the time in nature and the mornings with a video. 🙂 Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
Only comment: I have never forgotten my true heritage: Nature. I am lucky to be living in a small town at a small Island, Where we have nature all around us ! But we are so many people and there is still only this one planet to live on. 🙄🦋🐝🐛🐌🦎🐸🐳🌱🌻🌿⚘
💚
Much love for spreading so much positivity❤️
@Divya Shree - And thanks to you for taking the time to listen. x

One of the best youtube channel.. and this video is so deep..🙏🙏
@Anya Mitra - THANK YOU for being here along with us on this journey together x
Love this so much. I often wonder why we are here.
Resonating words...feels good just to hear everything Grant says.
So thankful for Mother Earth and for others living here and appreciating this miracle that we are :)
@Nama Sika 💚 💚 💚
Ah-h-h-h...your films always make me stop and take a deep breath. Thank you for the artful way you elevate these important voices...the visuals, the music, the pacing...his words...I'm drawn right in. Right away I related to what he said about being an introvert. It's taken my whole life to see the invitation to find my own voice in the midst of all the noise & distractions of life. Thank you, Grant for reminding me how important it is to take breaks to "ground". Nature teaches us so much about the way life works. Our "breaks" can only help what we bring to our so-called productivity. Next time I go out, I'm grabbing my stethoscope!
💚
when Im surrounded by nature, I feel at home. When I see your videos I feel connected. Thank youuuu :)
@Eugenia Voinea-Delast - Beautiful - THANK YOU x

wow, is it possible to fall in love with someone in a youtube video??? Just so aligned and felt a major connection to those sentiments and passion!
@anj lewis - Ah, he touched your heart. I love that!
I often think when I am sitting in nature and looking at the trees that have been there for who really knows how long..."oh what stories they could tell." The silent bearers of witness ♥️
Love this channel.
@Badjimmy - 'The silent bearers of witness' - haven't heard that before, and I LOVE IT!
Loved this so much, and this man. I want to go hang out with him, right now, though I cannot. But I am comforted by the fact of his existence, and others like him.
So well done. Thank you for sharing. You raise the awareness and in a way invite us all into that space between thoughts.
@Charles Curtis - 'The space between thoughts' - I love that!
Thank you for that energy I get everytime I watch an amazing and tender flim💚

Thanks a lot to the team of this channel. It's been a hard time for me dealing in this concrete jungle and my deteriorating mental health. This channel is my escape. Thanks for your wonderful work.

Great video, so rich in meaning. And what can I say of your photography, which capture those beautiful, fleeting moments in such a brilliant way... too good to be true!
@Sarah P - Such a privilege to spend so much time outdoors capturing these magical moments of mother nature x
This is so pure .. this is so healthy for all our components ...physically mentally spiritually emotionally ... the Global hollistic movement and getting back to origin is moving everyone now ..it is so deep that it Neutralize all our energies and we start to speak from within to one another ... It is so powerful all our spiritual barrier vanish ...when we all start communicating from within .. Thank you stay healthy but take the hand of others too so they experience this amazing energies ...💚💚💚💚💚
Thank you for sharing these thoughts Tala, something to ponder on. Warm wishes to you, Justine and Michael. 💚
This is the way. I've been trying to make it happen for me for a couple of decades. Time to stop trying. Time to be honest. Time to do. Thanks GR.
@Rich Martinez - Love this. Time to move out of the head and into the heart. x
Thank you. Very beautiful and true ❤
It's a pleasure, glad you enjoyed the video. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
The more you travel, the more you see that there are so many wonderful things in the world. It can be difficult to settle for something great when you can see that there could always be something better just round the next corner. Travel can sometimes simply be about a quest for perfection.
This quest for perfection that we are looking for,we found just now in your video so the only that we have to say on you:
Huge thank you and keep going!!!!!!!!
@Reel Happy Travellers - When we stop and allow ourselves to immerse, we realise that there is true beauty all around us all, every day x
I absolutely agree with every word, every of your ideas🙏I have felt just the same since my childhood. Thank you for this video🦋
@Kristīne Pakule - Thanks for allowing his story into your heart x
I just saw a television documentary on suicidal young men and I thought if only they could see the world through your eyes. To be connected to nature is to lose yourself and become part of a greater healing force. Beautiful video
@LeBot - So true - if we truly open ourselves to mother nature, there is so much we can learn, about ourselves and the world around us. x
You guys are seriously amazing.. unbelievably.. amazing. Thank you thank you thank you. For all you are sharing with the world.
Nature is honest, so should we. Totally agree.
💚
So wonderful to hear your words and realise how like minded we all are when we stand in the bush or walk in the beach.
