How to Reduce Stress
Do you need a stress buster?
For me, solitude is a wonderful "stress buster." Solitude in nature allows me to reconnect with my soul. The "noise" and confusion of my everyday world can be left behind and I can just listen to what my soul is saying. Today, you're in for a treat!
We're offering a way to connect with Nature and recharge your soul without leaving your home or office. The photographs from award-winning photographer, Ken Jenkins, are breathtaking. However, Nature's Inspiration is much more than beautiful photographs! Ken has also written short passages that take you with him at the "moment" of the photo. You feel as if you were there! In addition, he has compiled beautiful nature quotations from the likes of Emerson, Thoreau, and a beautiful 3 minute movie that you'll love. Nature's Inspiration is a 160 page coffee table book where every page is a "wow!" Without question, it is the most beautiful book we've ever published.Click below for a Stress Buster.
