Latitude 55 Outdoors

It’s National Wattle Day, so I’m sharing an Australian Bush Flower Essence that I love - the Sunshine Wattle.
This pretty little flower is traditionally connected to resilience, hope and letting go of the weight of the past.
Not pretending difficult things haven’t happened.
Not forcing positivity.
Just gently turning attention to lightness, joy and optimism for a brighter future.

A guided session can shift how you experience a familiar place — and give you new ways to connect with nature on your own.
But no, you don’t need a guide every time you go outside. 🌿
Go solo often.
Go guided once a month.
See What’s On on my website and join me for a walk:

How beautiful to have local author Kate (Kathryn) Carlisle read one of her heartfelt poems on this morning’s nature therapy taster at Mulligans Flat 🙏
Kate’s book ‘Feathers and Flame’ explores the process of healing through nature and invites us to do the same 🌿
I’ve ordered a copy…

Noticing little signs of Spring?
It can be easy to think if we work harder or move faster, growth will come sooner.
Nature reminds us of that growth happens quietly below the surface before it blooms.

A sit spot is simple, but it’s also powerful.
I have a spot on the hill near our home — both my fella and I enjoy sitting there.
I sit quietly and notice all that is happening around me.
The more I have visited, the more I’ve gotten to know the place.
It helps me feel more grounded, present and deeply connected to where I live.
Do you have a sit spot?
