What is it about getting out in the woods that puts your mind at ease?

The trees are firmly grounded into the earth, being near trees reminds us to return back to our state of grounding. There is lesser energy pollution in the woods and so it is easier to reconnect to the natural cosmic healing energies and the earth energies in the woods.

The following article explains this better.

How can you maintain mental and spiritual balance in today’s world?

Note: above picture copied from a google search of “rope walking images” Your question is very apt because never before in human history has there been so much disturbances to our spiritual balance than in today’s world. This is because of the energy pollution in the space around us. Our physical body is not the whole of us although that’s how it appears to our physical sense perception. Our physical body is contained within and also permeated by our energy body. Our energy body has been variously referred to or recognised as bio field, bio plasma, human electromagnetic field, energy body, aura, athma, spirit body or spiritual body. It is a field of electromagnetic energy and it makes up the five overlapping layers of our mind with its five separate aspects. Energy pollution is the energy vibrations of all the digital communications happening in the telecommunications network around us between the cellphone towers and all the mobile devices, computer systems, the satellite network, TV devices, radio stations, microwave devices, etc. The space around us is filled with information in the form of these energy waves and to our energy body it is pollution. It causes disturbances. This energy pollution by itself is however not the primary pitfall in today’s world. The distinction of primary pitfall goes to the modern culture of being in the thinking mind all the time. Throughout our waking time and also during sleeping time our mind is engaged and busy with activities in it. These include the monologues in our mind with ourselves, the dialogues we carry out mentally with an imaginary person, the voices of others in our mind telling us what not to do, memories of past events, worries about the future, planning, working, calculating, computing, watching something, reading, studying, fantasising, imagining, dreaming, etc. We are habituated to this and so it seems to be happening effortlessly and automatically although we are doing it. This habit is the biggest pitfall in our efforts to maintain mental and spiritual balance in today’s world. Now that we know the pitfalls, it is easy to learn and cultivate a new habit to help us remain connected with the natural earth and cosmic energy flows and remain balanced. The article linked below shows the way.
