There’s nothing like going on location and exploring the forest for color, texture, and subject inspiration! Forest bathing is a Japanese type of meditation, keeping yourself grounded, and helping your body heal both physically and mentally. I love forest bathing in the fall the most. It feels like I’ve entered some magical elven realm and brings out my inner elf 🧝🏻♀️ I especially love when I see land that hasn’t been disturbed, like the mossy rock pathway along the river, or wildlife feels safe to come out and play. Each time is a new experience, even when I go in the same place, there’s always something new or different. As life gets more stressful with the holidays, and lets face it other crazy things happening in the world right now, make sure to visit your local forest or backyard woods (safely of course). It’ll help clear your head a bit, and you might just find a new piece of magic ✨ 🌲 🌳 🍁 xoxo, Tina
