That glorious feeling of when you can close nearly a hundred research tabs, over half of them depicting different atrocities and variously distorted write-ups on them, and go walk among the good earth and touch grass instead. ๐Ÿ™‚

@MLClark I keep opening more...but I am going to adventure for a bit today, then back to it...some things are too important to keep waiting :)

@MLClark

Touching grass is the best way to reconnect with the earth. I walk barefoot in grass and feel an instant calm. I'm glad you had time to go for a well deserved walk with mother nature all around you. ๐Ÿ’ž

@JoyfullyDazed

Oh, no, I'm about to! (For 40 minutes, before an afternoon meeting.)

But I definitely need to find a place where I can walk barefoot in the grass - I haven't done that in ages. Great idea. Thank you for it! ๐Ÿค— So glad you have joy!

@MLClark @JoyfullyDazed

Shall I do it too? I wonder if it's just as therapeutic when it's 2 degrees C outside? ๐Ÿ˜‚

@LiseL @MLClark

Yes! Do it.

Doing it in 2 degrees C is probably like polar swimming...you can't do it for very long, but it's invigorating. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

@JoyfullyDazed @MLClark @holon42

Alright, I'm going out twinkle-toed and fancy-free to do some raking. Will report back with my findings. ๐Ÿ˜

@JoyfullyDazed @MLClark @holon42

And the results are in: going barefoot in the grass in wintry weather works just as well as it does in summer! I lasted about two minutes before the feeling changed from nice to ice, however. And I doubt I'll try it again with a sprinkling of snow on the ground. โ„๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜‚

@JoyfullyDazed @MLClark @holon42

I'll try and think of myself that way and see if it sticks! ๐Ÿงก

@LiseL @MLClark @holon42

I see you that way, please believe it. I'm pretty sure you've fought through things harder than walking barefoot in the snow. ๐Ÿ˜Š
