Summer Activities You Can Do From Anywhere

     Summertime is one of the best times of the year for fun events and keeping the child inside of you alive and nourished! Traveling is not always required to have a good time, and in fact here are some of the funnest activities you can do from anywhere! 

     1.)  Sometimes the purity of life comes from enjoying the smallest things. Bird watching is one of the most magnificent forms of therapy. Listening to birds for 5 minutes has the power to put your body into a parasympathetic state. The state in which your body can rest and digest. This is the place in which your body can heal and repair itself. Summer should be a time of restoration and healing, and what is easier than taking time to go outside, and absorb the sounds of the birds that surround you?

     2.) Painting flower pots and putting herbs in them! This fun activity leaves you feeling grounded and grateful. Getting your hands dirty in the garden can increase your serotonin levels. Contact with soil and a specific soil bacteria, Mycobacterium vaccae, triggers the release of serotonin in the brain! Very similar to what antidepressants try to mimic within the human body, nature does on its own! This project leaves you a sense of accomplishment, and something that you can look at everyday to be reminded of the hard work you put into something so healing! 

   3.) Look for shapes in the clouds! Kids keep their youth, because they are thriving on imagination! Choose to keep the child inside alive by engaging in activities that stimulate the brain in different ways! This may sound like a boring activity, but there is more to it than choosing to look at the clouds in different ways. You are spending time outside, typically laying on the grass to be outside for the best view and perspective of what is above. Earthing is one of the best ways to allow your body to step into a space of self healing. Soaking in the healing frequency of the earth to allow your body to do what is does best!! 

     Summer activities can be very simple and require very minimal effort, yet they have the ability to make such a positive impact on your life! Try out some of these super simple and fun summer activities to keep that child inside of you alive!
