Hug a tree & kiss a flower
Meva Ram Parmar
During New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's daily coronavirus press briefings, he usually offers an empathetic lament about how hard this pandemic has been for us very emotionally. "There is something to this lack of ability to connect," he said in one briefing. "Don't hug, don't kiss, stay six feet away. We are emotional beings and it is important for us, especially at times of fear, times of stress, to feel connected about someone, to feel comforted by someone special."
Here at the time of pandemic coronavirus well the Icelandic Forestry Service has a solution for that: "Hug a tree".
The service is encouraging people to cuddle up to a tree while social distancing is keeping loved ones out of arm's reach.
“When you hug [a tree], you feel it first in your toes and then up your legs and into your chest and then up into your head,” “It will be such a wonderful feelings of relaxation and then you’re ready for a new day and new challenges ahead.”
“Five minutes are really good, if you can give yourself five minutes of your day to hug [a tree], that’s definitely very enough." I say “You can also do it many times a day – that wouldn’t hurt. But once a day will definitely do the trick, even for just a few days.”
“It’s also really nice to close your eyes while you’re hugging a tree,” “I lean my cheek up against the trunk and feel the warmth and the currents flowing from the tree and into me. You can really feel it.”
“It’s recommended that people may get outdoors during this horrible & fealful time,” I would like to say further “Why not enjoy the forest and hug a tree & kiss a flower and get some energy from this plac".
So there you go; take it from your own garden or forest and go to hug a tree. And if you need me, I'll be outside with my arms around the Callery pear tree in front of my building.
