Creating Recovery

The greatest gift of the garden is the restoration of the five senses.

~Hanna Rion

As small children, we probed everything within reach and reached for everything in sight. The world was one big sensory playground. We were innocents, curious and uninhibited.

Mostly for our safe-keeping, we were trained to be cautious. Practical. Grown-up.

We may leave behind our innocence as we grow, but the need to satisfy our senses remains for a lifetime.

Let us now get back to the garden. To marvel at the exquisite forms growing right before our eyes. Taste the sweet juices of life. Breathe in delicate scents. Feel the pulse of nature. Hear the spirit of harmony in a world not of our making. And learn how to really live.

I am a sensory creature. The world is my playground. Today and every day there is something new and exciting just waiting for me.
