  • I've been going on a lot of hikes lately. It helps me to slow down and get out of my head.
    In Japan they have a word for this: forest bathing, or Shinrin-Yoku. It means healing through being immersed in nature.
    It’s about taking your time, wandering, listening to the birds singing, smelling the pine trees, and feeling the breeze on your skin. Taking in the forest through all your senses. Connecting with nature in this way can be a bridge to instant joy and calm.
    Join me on a solo hike in the Pirin Mountains (Bulgaria)!
    - ABOUT PIRIN NATIONAL PARK -
    Pirin National Park, known in Bulgarian as Национален парк "Пирин", is located in the Pirin Mountains. It was originally named Vihren National Park and is located in the southwest of Bulgaria.

    This park holds significant importance, as it is one of the three national parks in the country, the others being Rila National Park and Central Balkan National Park.

    Mindful walking must be the best medicine for us. I love the way you have captured so many things, my favourite was the ladybird and dragon fly on the rock. I can;t fault you hiking to get yourself out of your head. I wish everyone had the motivation, environment and physical ability to do this every day the world would be a calmer place in my opinion. Thank you Peter for such a wonderful video.

      That ladybird and dragon fly on the rock were so interesting! I didn't know if they were friends, or just hanging on for dear life on that rock, next to that wild running water. I find mindful walking and being out in nature great for getting out of my head and reconnecting with the natural pace of life. Thanks for watching!

    I’ve missed your videos. Great that you’ve managed to get out in nature. It must have taken a lot of work to put this together and edit it. Thank you. During walking week here in the UK an organisation called Living Streets published a free ‘Walkbook: Recipes for Walking and Wellbeing’. I thought it contained some lovely ideas. I added the link to this in my comment previously but think that may be why the comment was removed? Anyway, I thought you could make a great walking guide of a similar nature with your own images and ideas and sell it as a PDF. I'd buy it. :)

      Thanks, Neil! Never been to Florida, I hope there are also parts that are not overrun with tourists.

    Did you know that CC-button is greyed at your video. No way to turn CC on wich means no idea what you say. 😥

    • @IAmPeterCook
      @IAmPeterCook  Před 9 měsíci +1

      I think it's because this video doesn't have any words 😉. It's just music and nature sounds.
