Thank you, Karen. Now I understand why I need to be around waterfalls, creeks, rivers, ponds, and lakes, and why I love living in the Finger Lakes region of New York State.
Beautifully written, Karen. You explain things so clearly and succinctly. I know instinctively that I feel my best when near the water, surrounded by trees. Where I live, along the Seine, we are fortunate to have a lot of trees in the area. Whenever I feel off-kilter, a walk through the park along the river sets things straight. It never fails to sooth my nervous system. Even more effective when a gentle rain is falling. I hadn’t ever thought about it in terms of electrical energy, but that makes so much sense. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, your art, and research here. 🤍🤍🤍

I feel like an understanding of why gives us more permission to revel and linger in these restorative places.
