Entre incensos e velas

Neil Petrova, neto do barão Niklaus Petrova de Willow, viajava pelo mundo em sua tour. Ele passou um tempo em Komorebi e pode se aproximar mais da família Nagasaki, onde Tsugi, o segundo filho do duque, se tornou um grande amigo. Os dois passavam o dia todo conversando e rindo. Algo entre os dois não verbalizado faziam seus corações baterem mais forte.

Neil, sendo neto e herdeiro de um barão, tinha responsabilidades e expectativas sobre seus ombros desde o momento em que nasceu. Enquanto que Tsugi, segundo filho do duque e cego de nascença (mesma condição genética que a mãe) não possuía nenhum desses pesos que Neil carregava, embora quisesse. O chateava bastante quando ele ouvia os irmãos falando sobre seus planos e seu futuro enquanto ele estava destinado a ficar naquela casa pro resto da vida. Ele nunca sequer tinha saído de Komorebi.

Então Neil começou a contar para ele sobre suas viagens e tudo que existe lá fora. Descreveu da melhor maneira que pode, como tudo era. Cheiros, texturas e sabores de outras culturas.

Preciso dizer que eles se apaixonaram?

Foi num santuário que hospeda os túmulos dos antepassados da família Shinomori, (que fica no território do ducado de Shirinyoku) que os dois foram para ter um momento a sós. A ideia de Tsugi era poder conversar mais privadamente com Neil sem seus irmãos os interrompendo a todo momento. Mas Neil tinha outras ideias, principalmente ao estar num lugar tão calmo, silencioso, distante de todos e à luz de velas. Ele tomou coragem para roubar um beijo de Tsugi, e foi correspondido.

E eles ficaram ali, rodeados pelo cheiro dos incensos e somente com o barulho das gotas da chuva fina que caía nas telhas.

La thérapie par le câlin aux arbres : le “Shirinyoku”

👀 Qu’est-ce que la thérapie par le câlin aux arbres : le ‘Shirinyoku’ ? La thérapie par le câlin aux arbres : le “Shirinyoku” est une pratique de thérapie naturelle originaire du Japon, qui consiste à se promener et à s’immerger dans la nature de manière à ressentir une profonde relaxation et à améliorer son bien-être physique et mental. Le “Shirinyoku” inclut souvent des activités comme la…

Both of Japan's official religions - Shinto and Buddhism - believe that the forest is the realm of the divine. In Shinto, the spirits are not separate from nature, they are in it. They are the trees, in the the rocks, in the breeze, the stream, the waterfall. These spirits are called kami. They can be everywhere in nature. And the places where gods live can become the places of worship themselves. It is not unusual in Japan to find people worshipping in the forest.

Forest Bathing “What is forest bathing? This Japanese practice is a process of relaxation; known in Japan as shinrin yoku. The simple method of being calm and quiet amongst the trees, observing nature around you whilst breathing deeply can help both adults and children de-stress and boost health and wellbeing in a natural way.” - ForestryEngland.uk I love this tradition - the place I have always found peace is out in nature. The photo used in this graphic was taken in the Santa Fe National Forest not far from Cowles, New Mexico next to Jacks Creek Campground up in the Sange de Cristo Mountains. It is one of many great places to forest bathe near Santa Fe. After the graphic are photos from this trail including the one used in the quote graphic. #ForestBathing #ShirinYoku #森林浴 #CowlesNewMexico #JacksCreekCampground #SantaFeNationalForest #Forest #NewMexicoForests #NewMexico #LandOfEnchantment #Naturalist #PhotoByJeriRae https://www.instagram.com/p/CmpW9ZOPfr3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Forest bathing 🌲I started off running some errands today, and found myself walking towards the woods that overlook the city. There is so much magic here that I never fully appreciated before. . . . . . . . . . . . . . #shirinyoku #forestbathing #natureheals #natureismagic #ioannina #epirus #greeksummer #greeknature #greenwitch #liveslow #findjoyinthelittlethings #forestlovers #naturelovers #traveldiaries #igersgreece #slowandsimpledays (at Ioánnina, Greece) https://www.instagram.com/p/CegGBxUomEQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I'm always grateful and feel so blessed to get a chance to spend time outdoors!! It's essential to get some sun, fresh air and take in that zingy smell of phytoncide!! Phytoncide is the aroma emitted by trees and plants in the forest to protect themselves from harmful insects and from rotting. Dr. Qing Li, a professor at Nippon Medical School, discovered that frequent visits to forests for "forest bathing" can promote good health and happiness. He said that we suffer from nature deficit disorder, and exposure to forests to inhale phytoncides has several benefits. It can reduce stress levels and blood pressure, strengthen our immune and cardiovascular systems, boost energy, mood, creativity, concentration, decrease depression and anger, and even help us lose weight and live longer. Sadly we no longer have parks with enough trees in it to generate phytoncides we need. 😔 He recommends spending at least two hours in the forest once a week. Do go out and look for that green space. Feel the difference and find your peace. Have a great week ahead. 💚 #phytoncide #forestbath #naturedeficitdisorder #shirinyoku #stressreliever #healthylifestyle (at Antipolo, Rizal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKuuXV3nGFC/?igshid=a7s8xc72fykn

Decided it was a day for hiking. Being cooped up in the house and even waking around the neighborhood has been getting to me pretty badly. I am an outdoors guy, I need woods and bare rock and water to make me feel relaxed and happy. So we took a quick hike over at #bigrunmetropark here in Columbus and got all that in. No ruck, no workout, just some outdoor walking time with the family! I needed it! 🍁 #outdoors #hiking #columbusmetroparks #forestbathing #shirinyoku #shirinyoku🌲🌱🌳🌿 (at Big Run Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGx5csgAvj9/?igshid=1f1vnxhfnorpt

It’s not related to Japan as I mentioned in my earlier post but I’m addicted to its essence, the spirituality and simplicity of her lifestyle. Her videos are very therapeutic to watch, especially in this troubled times which makes you anxious and worry.
