Diving Into Nature
By: Natasha Dixon
A sit spot is a place to go to get away from the busyness of the environment around you. It is a calm place where you are able to enjoy the environment, connect to nature, and learn about your ecological identify. A sit spot can be a place close to home or a place farther away from your home where you go to get away. In sit spots, people are able to listen to nature, watch nature and smell nature. It provides the opportunity to truly connect and appreciate the world. It is the perfect place to observe and reflect on yourself and your experiences. Sit spots are perfect for adults and children to connect to nature which further highlights the benefits. One of my favorite sit spots is at the end of the dock at the cottage. I have always enjoyed going to the cottage as there is so much to do in nature. It gives me the opportunity to get away and enjoy nature. I enjoy this sit spot at the end of the dock so much because it is a calm, beautiful, and private space. I enjoy looking at the water where I will often notice fish swimming or turtles popping their heads up. It is the perfect place to sit and reflect to myself. I am typically in a positive mood when I go to this sit spot. I enjoy sitting their for hours soaking up the sun and observing the nature around. Across from the sit spot there are multiple trees to look at as well. It is especially beautiful in the fall when the trees turn different colours. Another aspect that makes this sit spot so peaceful is the sounds in the environment. I enjoy closing my eyes to listen to the bird chirping and the waves. It is a sit spot that I frequently go back to and will continue to visit to feel more connected to nature. I recommend that everyone finds at least one sit spot they can frequently visit to enjoy nature. There are so many benefits that you will understand once you find a sit spot. Get outside and enjoy nature! Related Resource: For more information on what a sit spot it and what you can do in a sit spot click the link below.

Really nice pictures you took, did you find it is more energetic and refreshed to go back to your study or work after coming back from your sit spot?
