October is Mental Health Awareness Month. Throughout history, being outside in nature has been a sacred activity, a way of encountering God, and in turn, our true selves. R. S. Thomas describes encountering God out walking on the Moor. Being out there, for him, felt like entering a church, a holy space, where, “what God was there made himself felt, Not listened to, in clean colours that brought a moistening of the eye, in movement of the wind over grass”. As the days shorten let us spend some time simply being in God’s creation.
