Nature’s life coaching: Life unfolding…

Over a period of two weeks the woodland ferns have sprung to life: from tight brown bundles…

 

 

 

the first green emerges and rapidly starts to push up towards the light…

 

 

 

…the leaves start to uncurl as the stems continue stretching upwards

 

 

 

and finally the fern spreads out in all its vibrant green, softening the woodland floor with its gently waving fronds.

 

 

 

Nature’s Life Coaching; green light for Spring

Spring chestnut leaves now decorate the bare branches of the forest. Soft and delicate on the outside but vibrant with inner life- force and power.  

 

 

And ash leaves unfurl, forming beautiful patterns of light and shade.

Nature’s life coaching; simple, golden joy…

Sometimes the simple things are the best!

The roadside verges are now covered in glowing dandelions – thousands of miniature reflections of the sun. As above, so below.

Nature’s life coaching: pure glory of Spring

The crocus flower has such a brief moment of glory – often just a few hours of pure beauty.

We have to be fully present in the moment to become conscious and uplifted by these gifts of Spring.

Exquisite blossom lights up a cold, grey morning…

Nature’s life coaching: woodland family homes needed

Spring is on the way and all over the wood small creatures are preparing homes for new families; spring-cleaning, re-furbishing, extensions, new builds…the birds are busy nest-building in the hedgerows. And all is watched over by the guardian of the forest…

Nature’s life coaching; natural glazing

Out walking on another cold grey day and the trees appeared to be dripping with rain – but stop and listen… no sound and no movement. What appears to be raindrops is actually frozen ice,

creating an unusual and very beautiful natural glaze on every twig and branch.

and the smooth trunk of an old beech tree has acquired a shining coat of varnish overnight. 

Making a precarious perch for the birds, but the most wonderful helter-skelter experience for the elves!

Nature’s life coaching: spider lace

On a grey and icy morning, a walk in the garden reveals exquisite spider webs in every corner. Lace and threads outlined by a deep frost overnight show the intricate patterns and designs, and how the opportunist spiders use any available structure to anchor their webs.
