The relaxation of both your body and mind is critical if you want to find out your authentic nature in nature. Tension in your body blocks the link between your sense of self as well as your true self.
Within our modern culture there is a lot of tension caused by the nature of the program during which we reside. There is a lot of stress because of time pressures, financial constraints as well as romantic relationship problems. All this tension blocks the underlying all-natural rest that is a part of our true self.
Our true self doesn't hold onto stress in both the physique or the thoughts. Instead there's a profound sense of rest and resulting feeling of oneness with all objects.
When I first enter the wilderness during a nature immersion I usually do a brief rest meditation so as to let go of any residual stress that I might be holding onto. What I do is scan throughout my physique and just notice any tension within my muscle tissues. Then when I come across stress I just let it go, usually on an out-breath.
This letting go is just like letting go of the rock in my hand. When I let go of a rock it drops towards the ground. Likewise with stress in my physique. I just let go of the tension within my body and allow it to drop towards the ground. Then mother earth can use this 'tension' elsewhere, exactly where it's required.
After I have scanned through my body and let go of all tension I usually discover that my body has entered into a profound sense of rest. As soon as my body is relaxed I then scan through my thoughts and just let go of any tension that's inside my mind and allow it to drop towards the earth. This is how I let go of stress when out in nature.
When I let go of tension like this I discover the calm state permits me to be much more present to the existing second. I notice that my five senses of sight, listening to, scent, the taste and feeling naturally turn out to be more acute when within this calm state of mind and body. It is like I reside more in the moment.
While within this calm state I listen to many more birds, see many more animals, smell more of the earth's smells, taste the different tastes along the wind and feel the various sensations all through my physique. This amplification of the 5 senses whilst relaxed also allows me to enter in to the spirit dimension a great deal more effortlessly to feel the delicate pull of spirit and the life power.
