Nature
For my nature experiment I decided to go out to my backyard. This has always been the most relaxing place for me. Not just because its my home but because of the lightness of the air, and the different plants that make up our garden. I sat down, close enough to our orange tree to smell the aroma of the oranges. It was a light, yet strong Aroma that made me sneeze. I layed down on my lawn where I could listen to the chirps of our birds. I looked up at the sky and saw one of them, I examined its actions and realized it had created a nest for its new borns, In one of our trees. As I got closer I could listen to the chirps of these newborn birds. It was a good feeling because lately it has become harder for me to make time and go out to my backyard, and just relax and let nature take over me. I sat there observing every little detail. The best part however was the fresh wind blowing against me. It was a fresh, light feeling. It was not cold, it was simply at the right tempature. I could almost taste its undescribeable fragrance. Once this air blew against my face it became something like an "out of body" experience. This experiment made me value nature,I realize that sometimes this can be the easiest way to siply relax, by opening up to Nature and letting her take over your body.
