nature meditation
Forest bathing practice
Nature meditation is the practice of meditating outdoors or with focused attention on natural elements—trees, water, birdsong, wind.
The setting itself becomes the object of contemplation rather than breath or mantra.
I do nature meditation by the creek most mornings.
The practice may involve simply sitting in awareness of the natural environment or walking slowly through it.
