Poem

Forest bathe with me
Discard the weight upon your shoulders
Absorb the energy from the Earth
Bathe in the light of The Forest
Find a clearing
Surrounded by trees
Ancient and wise
They have seen many lives lived
From beginning to end
They state confidently that anguish 
Isn't helpful or productive
Set your worries aside
Soak in the rippling dappled light
Observe the way the branches sway
Resynchronise your senses
Breathe in deeply
Breathe out fully
Expelling the stresses and strains
The clearing
The cleansing
The coaxing back
Of the art of living gently
Feeling at ease and without burden
With nature by your side
Always and forever there
Fill up those vacated spaces
Where unhelpful thoughts resided
With the whispers from the trees
That you are where you need to be
On your journey
With the strength and stability
To make strides when you need to
And rest when required
You are in the clearing
Where the light comes through
Restoring you, giving you warmth 
Providing comfort you can carry with you 
Return as often as you need to
The clearing amidst the trees
Is always there
