The Nature Healing
Phenomenon and human.
Did
you know…that there is a remarkable and completely free technique for lowering
blood pressure, boosting heart health, reducing pain and inflammation?
Until
recent times, people lived in close daily contact with the Earth. They walked
barefoot on the ground and slept close to or directly on the Earth. Ancient
healers believed Earth’s energy could be easily absorbed through our skin and
through the soles of our feet.
Now
we know this absorption of energy was real, and had significant health
benefits. We can reclaim those benefits through a simple and free technique
called “Earthing.”
Earthing (also called grounding) means
reconnecting your body with the free electrons that flow through the Earth’s
surface. It can be as simple, easy, and free as walking barefoot outdoors.
Kelly
Pepper, D.C. explains that the flow of energy between our bodies and Mother
Earth works to support the various systems in our body and scavenge up free
radicals that promote inflammation. “Our planet has a negative electrical
potential that is generated by solar winds, our ionosphere, and lightning
storms,” she says. “When our skin is in direct contact with the earth we
maintain the same electrical potential as our planet. This phenomenon has been
occurring mostly without interference up until the last several generations.”
Now,
however, most people always wear shoes outdoors. Most shoes have thick soles
that block the natural flow of electrons. Most modern people rarely make direct
skin contact with the Earth.
Earthing for Healthy
Blood Pressure and Heart Health
According
to the renowned integrative cardiologist Stephen Sinatra M.D., co-author of Earthing: The Most Important Health
Discovery Ever, Earthing can have potent effects for healthy blood pressure.
“Blood
should flow like red wine—smoothly and easily,” he says. “Too many people have
thicker blood, more like ketchup. That takes a lot more effort from the heart
to circulate, and the pressure against the inside of arteries and blood vessels
is much higher!” Thinning the blood helps to lower blood pressure…and Earthing
can help thin the blood.
“Indications
are that Earthing is indeed a natural solution to thinning the blood,” says Dr.
Sinatra. “Earthing’s positive effects on blood viscosity are so impressive, in
fact, that those on certain medications, such as prescription blood thinners,
need to be careful when beginning an Earthing program.”
Other
studies have shown Earthing may support heart health in other ways, as well,
including reducing stress…balancing the autonomic nervous system…and managing
levels of cholesterol (a stress hormone).
If
we can understand the beauty of nature and how it gives everything it has
selflessly then we can surely lead a life filled with peace and harmony.
It’s
true that nature always so full of love. Amazingly it’s what we want it to be
sometimes warm, sometimes soothing, relieving, refreshing, healing, a little
naughty, and innocent but understanding it’s loving
Yes.
Nurturing the nature amounts to nurturing ourselves. For natural cycles to
remain favourable to us we have to involve our mind and body to keep nurturing
the positive aspects of our ambiance and ecological surroundings. We live in an
interdependent world and can't afford to ignore even a single element of the
nature. This has got to be nurtured scientifically!
To sustain our inner
nature, we need sustenance by outer nature!
Whenever
feel little depleted --just sit all alone under the sky and with nature
anywhere any spot available and feel the difference.
Let
us also give back to nature what we take from her. Resources should be renewed
constantly for survival.

Since "Humanity' did not nurture with "Nature", but nurtured on
Nature and also nurtured faster than the Nature its resources are near
depletion. It's high time for humanity to nurture the Nature more and the
Nature must nurture the humanity lesser for replenishment of its resources.
2
Nurture with The Nature refers to nurturing of humanity with equitable
nurturing of the Nature. It means that consumption of the Nature's resources by
humanity must be optimum to keep pace with the Nature's nurturing requirements.
The nurture of the Nature and humanity must be equal in pace and opposite in
nurturing substances [nutrients]. To exemplify oxygen is given off as bye
product in the atmosphere by the plants and vegetations which is consumed
[inhaled] by animals including human for survival; opposed to this
carbon-dia-oxide is emitted by the animals and human as respiratory waste
product, this is consumed by the plants and vegetations for energy production
through photosynthesis [nutrients and medicinal substances synthesis]. The
excretory waste [faeces and urine] of animals and human are used as fertilizer
to catalize the plants and vegetation growth rate. Thus plants and human are
interdependent through mechanism of feedback regulation; this applies to other
inanimate forms of the Nature and human.
Far
from the maddening crowd, rainbows shine through silver clouds, songs of birds
echo across flowering valleys, waterfalls cascade down majestic mountains and
we pause to wonder about the poetic painter whose imagination creates sheer
miracles on the canvas of the Universe.
As
the sunflower turns towards the sun to soak in its energies, when we surrender
to the warm embrace of nature, fatigue gives way to vigour and the mind finds
new strength.
‘Nature
cures, not the physician.’ Hippocrates recognised the powerful attribute of
nature. In its pure, unpolluted state, nature contains all the energetic and
spiritual elements needed for life and vitality!
Why
do wind and water, trees and ether have this wondrous effect on us? It’s because
all of creation including the human body comprise of the very elements that
prakriti प्रकृति or nature is made up of. Prakriti प्रकृति and Purusha पुरुष are the two different aspects of the
manifest Brahmn ब्रह्म,
known as Iswara ईश्वर.
Purush पुरुष sets in motion the entire creative
process and Prakriti प्रकृति gives shape and
signifies pure energy.
Nature
consists of life force or prana प्राण , by which all living entities are
upheld, and, on manifestation, nature takes on the forms of earth, water, fire,
air and ether. When we are physically and emotionally depleted, we lose these
life-sustaining energies and negative energy accumulates, resulting in disease
and disharmony. But nature automatically helps us discharge negative energy and
recharges us with its life giving force! John Muir, the naturalist says,
‘Nature is always lovely, invincible, glad. Whatever is done and suffered by
her creatures, all scars, she heals’!
Here’s how different
elements of nature help rejuvenate and heal us:
Trees & Air: The energy converting activity of
photosynthesis — the constant cycle of conversion by green plants — maintains
the earth’s natural balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen. In the midst of green
trees, our negativity is absorbed, and replenished with positive energy, making
us feel better. A simple walk in the woods, or sitting under the shade of trees
enhances our wellbeing.
Flowers: Flowers are powerful energy givers.
When someone is unwell, we bring them flowers, helping them feel better. We
also send flowers, along with loving thoughts to comfort the bereaved. And
countless, invaluable herbs like basil and thyme are used in healing.
Earth: Just as we try to reach up to the
heavens to receive its blessings, we need to reach down to mother earth to take
away our negativity. Spending time in the garden gives us a calm connect with
all of life. As we dig our fingers deep into the soft earth, we can feel its
energy and our spirits soar! Walking barefoot on the ground or along the beach
saying our meditation mantra is also a powerful way to heal.
Water: Rivers, lakes and oceans make us
part of the flow, washing away resentment and help us cleanse ourselves
physically and emotionally. Bathing is a sacred renewal, discarding the old and
embracing the new.
Fire: Fire is an active force reflecting
the passion and creativity within us. It can animate and create with its
colours of red, orange and yellow. Thus, lighting diyas दिया or earthen lamps in our homes, helps keep the environment
pure and free of negativity.
Mountains: Nature’s peace and the pure air
refresh us as we climb up the mountains. They influence us with their sense of
stability and strength as we climb up. We find the will to touch skies, which
otherwise seem unreachable. Sir Edmund Hillary said, ‘It is not the mountains
we conquer, but ourselves’.
Ether: The fundamental element is ‘Akashik आकाशीय Intelligence’.
Turning our hands upwards and consciously drawing in the blessings from the
power we believe in, will enable the channels in our fingers to open and we
will feel life flowing in with a tingling sensation.
If
constraints do not allow us to ‘get away’, we can receive similar benefits by
gazing at a blue sky overhead or a scenic painting, and practising
visualisation. ‘God writes the gospel not in the Bible alone, but on trees and
flowers and clouds and stars’, said Martin Luther.
The
luminous star of Bethlehem led the wise men of the East to the manger where
Jesus was born and Buddha बुध्द found
enlightenment under the Bodhi बोधी tree.
Nature
is the flautist and we the flute! When there is no disharmony and ego within,
nature plays incomparable divine music through us.
