Nature, Wellbeing & Retreat Reflections
✨Thoughts on nature connectedness, sustainability and intentional living✨
🌿 Resolutions or Intentions? A Gentler Way to Begin the Year
Resolutions or intentions? 🌿
January often asks us to change ourselves — quickly, dramatically, perfectly.
But what if this year began more gently?
Resolutions chase outcomes.
Intentions invite a way of being.
An intention creates space for growth, compassion, and rhythm — even when life doesn’t follow the plan.
As the year unfolds, we’re choosing presence over pressure and nature over noise.

In this article, we explore why our bond with nature has weakened, what it means for mental health and biodiversity, and how mindful practices can help us rewild our senses.
