No matter how healthy, mindful and cautious you may be, Shit happens. The fear of being on bed squashed me when the doc discovered that I have a broken Metatarsal 🙄. I wasn't worried about the injury but thinking how can I fasten the healing process. My innate nature is to never compromise with what life throws at me as it is not in my control but what I make out of it lies one-hundred percent with me. One week of my injury and I am recovering magically day by day. Thanks to my CONNECT with nature and incredible energy of my loved people around me. Countless studies show that individuals heal faster or have more energy and better cognitive abilities when they have a view of nature instead of the urban concrete jungle. There has not been a single day when I missed my dose of nature. Whether it was sitting on a wheel chair in the garden, clearing my emails under the tree, running my meetings near the pool and clearing paper work in a room with this view👆 Getting away, relaxing while being strolled on the wheel chair by plenty of my loved ones, spending time in nature, meditating, eating healthy, and sleeping deeply has surely made me feel rested, renewed, and back on track. ☺️ I am more rested than I ever was. Every thing happens for a reason 😉 . . . #nature #naturehealing #roomwithaview #nature_perfection #natureaddict #naturelover #nature_of_our_world #sunset #sunset_ig #lifeisbeautiful #sheisnotlost

Most of us know that humanity’s carbon footprint is massive, damaging the environment with every bit of carbon emission . . . You might already be doing your bit to help the environment when at home, but did you know that you can also go on low carbon holidays? . . . Holidays are definitely the perfect time to let your hair down and relax, but when it comes to reducing your carbon footprint, you should remain responsible. For example, just as you would at home, make sure to separate your rubbish into recyclables and non-recyclables. Remember to switch off the lights and the air-conditioning when you leave your room and conserve water by closing off the taps when you aren’t using them. Maybe you aren’t the greenest family on the block. Perhaps nobody would ever peg you as a tree-hugger. However, eco-travel isn’t just for environmentalists. It’s a fundamental shift in how we think about traveling . . . The whole point of travel is entertainment and enrichment. Helping the environment should enhance that experience, not take away from it. Don’t forget to enjoy yourself! . . . While my heart aches with the thought of plastic thrown around everywhere I am so grateful to be able to find green patches in Jaipur city . . . #gogreen #travel #travelresponsibly #environment #sustainableliving #travelgram #beautifuljaipur #trees #smritivan #sheisnotlost 🌳🍀

“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson It’s one of those things many of us know by feel, but not necessarily through scientific evidence. We just feel better when we spend time exposed to nature. , if you decide to take a walk, forget the treadmill. Do it on a nature trail instead, and a better mood and greater viability, less frustration and lower mental distress may be your rewards. Environmental psychologists have for a while now used the Connectedness to Nature scale to measure people’s cognitive connection to nature. The scale assesses one’s belief that connection to the natural world is an important part of one’s sense of self. Several environmental psychology research studies have shown that people who score high on this scale also report greater concern for the environment as well as greater happiness and social acceptance . . . I am getting my dose in this vast open land. How about you? . . . #travel #nature #destress #connectedness #wellness #selfcare #sheisnotlost

I used to think the word "selfish" was a bad one. Being called selfish by a parent, in a relationship, at a job, or really in any situation wasn't usually a compliment. But today, I'd like to challenge that assumption. What if we considered this idea of a self-centered or self-ish perspective to simply be the reality of how we move through life? I actually believe a selfish way of living offers us the greatest ability to be of benefit to the world. How does that figure? I am selfish with my daily meditation practice. It must happen come hell or high water. Sometimes that means it's happening at 4:00 AM. I am selfish with my food choices. While I love to eat (really I do), I have become more selfish with the things I do and do not eat. I am selfish with politely saying "no" to a slice of cake when it's someone's birthday and I don't really want it. I am selfish with my need for wandering - and I have been traveling much more because of it. This selfishness makes me appreciate the joys of home, strangers, foreign lands and true lessons learned all the more. This selfish studentship also makes me a much more consummate teacher. Today I'm declaring to myself and to others that I am indeed unapologetically selfish . . . #wellness #fearless #selfcare #selfish #travel #unapologetic #wanderlust #wandering #sheisnotlost

Happy FREEDOM Day #india . . . As much as I travel to explore new places and learn about people, I live my life because, everyday I wake up, I know I can open the door and do anything I want. Exploring my world. Maybe a few years from now it’ll be different. But no matter what I do or where I go, I’ll never really change how I live because I’m not giving up my freedom to do whatever it is that makes me happy anytime I want . FREEDOM IS THE ESSENCE OF MY BEING AND I PURSUE IT IN MANY WAYS . . .“Freedom, to me, means being able to not worry that I'll be judged or criticized for my actions, look or thoughts.” . . “Freedom, to me, is the opportunity to learn, grow, and make mistakes without any burden or fear of undue restrictions or consequences. . . “Freedom, to me, is being able to hop on a plane, jump in the ocean, share my thoughts, and walk down the street without being frightened of persecution.” . . “Freedom is to be able to be myself without fear.” . . What does FREEDOM mean to you? . . . #independenceday #freedom #livefree #independence #beyourself #fearless #travel #thoughts #indian #freesoul #sheisnotlost

How do you make a person feel a connection with the natural world so that they want to conserve it. If we can’t make enough people feel that connection the conservation movement will be in trouble. The first step in connecting your body with nature is realizing that you are nature – not separate from – but an integral part of it all. Your body is made up of all the same elements, minerals and energy that makes up the planet. Get friendly with the elements. Whether that means you take a swim in the ocean or go camping in the forest, simply put – get into nature. Study the different plants, flowers, animals and all of life’s creatures. Breathe the air in an area abundant with trees. Climb a boulder or mountain. Listen to the birds, the wind in the trees and all the sweet sounds of nature. Do meditative forms of movement such as meditation and yoga in nature. Imagine roots growing into the ground from your feet and your arms being the branches of the tree...what fruits do you bare and what are you grounded into? Imagine you are a hawk in the sky…how would you feel and where would you go? Imagine you are any of your favorite animals and feel their energy in your body...because it is there. You are able to tap into any part of nature, because it is inherently in you. No matter how long you stay indoors, at a desk or under fluorescent lighting. The truth remains – you are nature and nothing can take that away from you 🌿🌼🌸🐢🦆🌴🌦 . . . #nature #naturephotography #naturelovers #natureporn #conservation #travelgram #westin #sheisnotlost
