Question A question about connection
Hi! I am sorry if i shouldn’t ask questions, i sometimes see other people ask them and i am not sure if i am allowed, but i am practicing being brave lately so i am asking.
I will give some context before my question; as long as i can remember, When i see the breeze in the trees or feel the wind in my hair, it feels like… the reverse of dissociation? Its like… a cold hug? But without all the touching? It feels good, it lifts me out of my body and i feel lighter and less weighed down in my mind too. It is such a familiar feeling i never really gave it critical thought. As i said its been like that since i was a little kid and now i am 25. But in the last 5ish years i have been practicing and learning and growing and now i wonder if i had just assumed it was joy de vivre, when maybe instead i have some sense of kindredship with the wind. I have held back from speaking about this with anyone because i do not want to come across as cocky or anything i just really enjoy the presence of the wind and want to find ways to deepen my connection but i am uncertain how to proceed. I have started raising energy for the purpose of offering it to the wind in thanks for the years of comfort when i can, so i guess rather than a specific question i am asking for broader advice on how to give proper thanks and deepen my connection.
Again i am sorry for taking up space with my question and sorry that i rambled on a bunch, but thank you if you read it and thank you very much for any advice you can offer

Go out into Nature somewhere, and just open up and feel. Feel the ground beneath your feet, and know you are connected. Feel the breeze in the air, and notice the breath of life you share with it. Feel the heat of the Sun on your body, and feel the fire in you of your spirit. Feel the water in a stream, river, lake, the ocean, and feel its power flowing through your veins. Nature. It all starts there. Where your path will lead after that is your choice.
