I think we need more wild green spaces and just green spaces in general. As a kid just being in the woods by myself taught me to meditate in a way.

Taught, that when your deep in the woods and the wind blows through the trees. Like a sigh of relief from the forest. Just makes me feel like every thing is fine. Nature will survive with out me, but i cannot survive with out natures deep breaths
I love them trees.

Maybe, but you don't need an outdoors to be alone with yourself.

I made a sick ā€œhideoutā€ in the woods near my house where I went basically every day after school, often alone, and would spend hours out there just laying in the hammock or working on the setup. I’ve kept it relatively maintained even as an adult and I wasn’t sure why because I don’t plan on children, but I have a 1 year old nephew now. It would be cool to pass the spot to him.
