So true. It is almost like the body and soul know to search for these areas. It comes to us as "usual" or "norm" to just reside in dwellings (towns, cities, homes) but before these semi-permanent dwellings, nature had none of these places. We were essentially all nomads; and places like the coast with its beautiful yet always changing scenery had something special to them which the old nomads knew.

Fully true. I sometimes meditate on the ancient Koi bushmen who used to roam along these Cape coasts.

I envy their knowledge of nature and the environment! I try to meditate and imitate that in my own garden which I have indigenized.
