Leaf Arte. I picked up the practice of creating leaf art during fall of 2018. At the time this practice helped me slow down my pace, emotions, & thoughts. I would do this when meditating was too difficult. It helped to have something simple focus on, like the commonalities of leaves, rather than the drastic shift to stillness. What brings me back to this practice, year after year, is the feeling of awe that comes from noticing all the of shapes, patterns, and colors found in nature. I am always reminded that all living beings are made with so much intention. Me, you, squirrels, trees, & leaves, included.
