Publisher's Synopsis
Woodland - a contemplative site
Exposed to a flood of sensory impressions and an ever faster pace, more and more of us are finding it hard to switch off and relax, but at the same time, there is an ever growing need to slow down and recover.
The more we yield to the burden of multitasking and succumb to the stress of hobbies and rushing around, the more we need an alternative and counterweight to the challenge of modern times.
This edition of the book contains numerous photos and illustrations printed as black and white grayscale for a cheaper printbook. A full in color printed edition is also available!
As life becomes more hectic and demanding, we often long only to let go, empty our minds and let ourselves drift.
Too many appointments, rivalry at work and strife in the family - far too often we are caught in the treadmill of must and should.
In woodland, we are free to roam and dream without any obligations and to observe without interfering. We can impartially let it affect us and note the effects.
There is no competition or pressure to stand out in woodland; there is no agitation or deadline to be met.
We leave the vicious circle of doubt and reflection, and instead we feel and live in the present, in the here and now.
We escape the vortex of negative thoughts and worries, and the primal force of woodland takes over, offering us sustenance, strength and consolation.
Our hearts dilate, our minds become free, and we change from thinking to feeling. We breathe the power of the woodland in without impairing the woodland in any way.
Nature draws us away from our worries, vexations and problems, and our minds focus on nature and trees, becoming more attentive and meditative.
