I feel more at peace when surrounded by nature than anywhere/anytime else. It is my safe place. My calming place.
I've actually spent the last year and a half in national forests, trying to immerse myself in nature. Stress-wise, this was a huge gain for me, but I also got frustrated by not knowing as much as I wanted about nature, and having most of the information I found presented individually by topic, not by what's coming up now or soon.
Being an Aspie, I decided to make my own order out of the chaos. So I put lots of topics together to make a completely new kind of calendar. I wanted something that could help me experience the world around me, not just pretty pictures of it (though there are great pictures, too).
To do that, it follows the moon cycles, includes seasonal produce, astronomical events that are visible with the naked eye, nature activity ideas, and more...And it doesn't start in January, but in spring, at the beginning of the natural year.
If you're interested you can check out the calendar here. If you know anyone else who might be interested, would you tell them? I really appreciate any help spreading the word.
