For the Love of Aspens

Christine Snyder Tags: inspiration natural world observation

I feel so fortunate to live in a place where Aspens grow. No matter the time of year, they have such an ability to ground you, bring you back down to the simple truths in life. Sitting in an Aspen grove can be a spiritual experience. You feel like you could just curl up and dissolve into the embrace of the trees, the branches, the leaves, and the root system underneath. I'll never grow tired of the rustling of the wind through the leaves and the smell of green.

If you are a fan of Aspens too then you may want to join me in another outdoor Nature Journaling class tomorrow at Aspen Corner. I'll have three new journaling prompts for you, perfect to immerse yourself in the beautiful surroundings. I will also bring some different materials if you would like to experiment with new water coloring techniques perfect for capturing the enchanting nature of Aspens. You can sign up here: Aspen Corner Nature Journaling.

Hope to see you there!

What are Little Moments you say? This is a once weekly newsletter that I hope is a small nudge or ounce of motivation for you to get outside and observe the natural world. It doesn't have to be grandiose, a small leaf on the ground, an interesting rock, anything you notice that you pay enough attention to casually sketch it or paint it in a journal. All the Little Moments add up to a life lived more observantly, grounded in the natural world.
