Interested in what are the chemical messages sent by forest? What are the active chemicals that effect us?

Time in nature also measurably reduces ADHD symptoms

The message we receive in nature may include stimuli of all our different senses: sight, smell, sound, touch, taste. I imagine that research on persons with one or more of those senses blocked (blindfold, ear plugs, etc) would impact the strength of the response observed.

What country is that?

Viewing fireflies

My mother taking me, as a small child, into the deep woods behind our home, finding a pink lady’s slipper, bringing a mushroom, ferns, etc back to make a terrarium to dream to

The first swim in Sipsey Fork of the summer is always a spiritual experience for me. My Sipsey baptism! Saves my life every time.

I visit King's Chair in Oak Mountain at least weekly for prayer and meditation. I have also had my best ideas at that location!
