Prescribed To Raindrops
We often seek therapy, medications, internet advice and other modern-day solutions to heal us from our emotional baggage and mental health issues. But how many of us utilize the power of rain to heal ourselves? The most natural water around, rain is the life force behind all things nature: plants, trees, flowers, animals and yes, humans.
So why don’t we utilize rain to heal us from our troubles? It is so soothing to sit around your house and become comfortable while listening to the falling raindrops outside your window; especially if you incorporate this during a meditative state. Just the sound of rain hitting the outside surroundings helps to relieve stress after a long day’s work.
Try to find a comfortable place in your home and just kick back while it’s raining outside. Read a book, meditate or talk to someone who can enter this relaxing state of mind with you; just enjoy the soothing sound of rain. You don’t always have to go for a jog or unwind with a glass of wine when feeling stressed.
Your potion is provided by nature itself; you just have to remember to use it. And the best part of it is that this medicine is completely free; nothing is more natural than rain. It doesn’t involve you smoking a joint, pouring a drink, popping a pill or snorting a line. It involves some patience, the will to relax and the desire to just be present in the moment, without any expectations.
Relieving stress or healing mental illness does not always come down to medications or psychotherapy. These simple things such as taking a stroll in a quiet place out in nature, or calmly listening to the raindrops outside your window are just as good! But many people don’t do these things because they’re too caught up in quick fixes.
There are no quick fixes and if you think there are, then you’re experiencing bandaids. To really heal yourself from stress and mental illness, sometimes you just have to spend some intimate time with nature and her beauty. And her beauty spreads naturally in the form of raindrops. It’s time for you to start tapping into this natural source of healing.
