natural harmony

Ecosystem's inherent equilibrium

Natural harmony is the idea that elements of nature exist in a state of balance or complementary relationship.

In ecology, it suggests ecosystems self-regulate through interdependent species and cycles: The natural harmony of predator and prey populations.

The concept appears in philosophy and spirituality to describe humans living in accord with nature rather than against it.

In music, natural harmony refers to consonant intervals derived from the overtone series—the sounds that occur naturally when a string or column of air vibrates.
