Whether it’s dealing with the stress of highway traffic, putting up with noisy neighbors, or constantly being surrounded by gossiping folks who have an unhealthy obsession with consumerism and celebrity culture, I think any sensible person — at one time or another — has felt the desire to escape the BS of society.
Unfortunately not everyone has the capability to do this for obvious reasons. But the mind is a very powerful thing, and through detailed visuals and contemplative thought, we actually have the ability to calm ourselves just by using the power of visualization.
With that said, I decided to share some peaceful retreats and introverted homes with my followers, and encourage all of you who are feeling stressed, anxious or caught up in the rat race, to just pause for a moment — quiet your mind— take a deep satisfying breath — unplug from all the bullshit — and imagine experiencing the serenity and tranquility of being in these beautiful locations.
I’m sure that at least one of these amazing places will resonate with you, perhaps even inspire you to go on your own adventure.
Enjoy!
