There are many ways that people relate to animals, and sometimes, we tend to get along far better with our furry friends than we do with other people. Believe it or not, humans are born with the same instincts that animals are born with, and that instinct is to survive, thrive and reproduce. There are also many similarities in the environments of animals and humans that we find ourselves relating to and many people feel drawn to one animal in particular that they feel resembles them in likeness – a spirit animal if you will. The traits and characteristics of animals can be directly linked to humans and many cultures today still believe in the transferring powers of energies between animals and humankind. So, perhaps you are more of a lazy person who prefers to lounge around and eat snacks all day but feels completely comfortable in your skin; you could quite possibly be a panda bear in disguise. Likewise, if you are an assertive and dominant individual who is not afraid of a challenge, you may find yourself drawn to a lioness as they take charge and aren’t afraid of standing up when things get tough. Whatever your animal is, there is a reason you feel connected in some way, and taking ownership of who you are and finding pride in it is a wonderful thing.

Bonding With Nature
Connecting with nature, even if it is just on a canvas, comes with many benefits. Since our biology is linked to nature, our DNA is interwoven with the primal desire to be one with the Earth, and that is why spending time in nature is the best therapy for us. Being in the sunshine, feeling the grass and dirt between your toes, gazing at the stars or feeling weightless in the cool and soothing ocean are all wondrous healing mechanisms that we often take for granted. We are all guilty in one way or another for choosing to stay indoors rather than going for a walk, but we cannot deny our joy when we look out of the window to see clear skies and feel a warm breeze on our skin or our excitement when heavy rains hit the ground in the dry season. Psychologically, spending time in nature or just associating nature in some shape or form in your day has significant benefits that can reduce stress, anxiety, depression and releases a rush of endorphins that leave us feeling happy and renewed.
If you take a look around your home or office, how many plants will you find? In addition, there are probably pictures of nature, be it sunsets, the ocean or wildlife hanging on the walls, and you may also have a few pets too. Nature is the one constant of beauty in our lives and is a fierce force that demands admiration. Without knowing it, our biological need to be surrounded by nature influences how we decorate our homes or workspace and directly correlates to where we feel most at peace.
