How FEAR can paralyze your life and what to do when it does
One morning Max, (who could be any of us), woke up feeling overwhelmed by his financial situation: taxes and ongoing payments he had to cover on one hand, and lack of income on the other. Realizing this, he began to express it out loud to his wife by saying: "I feel terrified...", was the phrase he repeated two or three times during the course of the morning, "…that's how I feel, terrified. I do not know how else to describe it, I literally feel terrified.”
Early afternoon that day, Max began to experience something that alarmed him even more: his muscles began to contract involuntarily and gradually, up to a state of continuous spasms, this time around, specifically on the left side of his upper body…

Meaning of Mandalas
The renown Swiss psychologist Carl Gustav Jung, adopted the Sanskrit word mandala to describe the circle drawings he and his patients did. He associated the mandala with the Self, the center of the total personality. Jung suggested that the mandala shows the natural urge to live out our potential, to fulfill the pattern of our whole personality.
Growth toward wholeness is a natural process that brings to light ones uniqueness and individuality. For this reason Jung called the process individuation. He advocated respectful attention to the symbols of the unconscious as a way to enhance personal growth, and saw the spontaneous appearance of mandalas in dreams, imagination, and artwork as evidence that individuation is taking place.

Our inherent need to connect with Nature
Where thought goes…energy flows. Hence, it would seem logical, or at a minimum plausible, to imagine that when being in a forest or by a river, the current of thoughts is calmer and potentially more nourishing, or even healing. As opposed to when being in a hurried, hectic, or unsettling environment.
The concept that humans have a biological need to connect with nature has been called biophilia, from the Greek, meaning ‘love of life and the living world’. Because we evolved in nature, we have an inherent biological need to connect with it. Humans love nature because they learned to love the things that helped them to survive. Humans are genetically determined to love the natural world. It is in their DNA, and this affinity for the natural world is fundamental to their health. Regular contact with nature is vital to our well-being. It supports our level of awareness.
