Amidst fast paced development in science and technology, especially in communication devices, we are drifting away from mother nature which we ought to have closely aligned with. While wr may have many ifs and buts to prove hiw exciting our living styles are or how important our commitments are , yet the sunrise, the cool breeze , the chirping of birds , the sunset , the trees , flowers, flowing water and many more may still be enjoyed
E.M Foster , a great english novelist says,"what is good of your stars and trees, your sunrise and the wind, if they do not enter into our daily lives?"this is true for us , excluding the older generations, for they still follow the age- old maxim of `early to bed and early to rise' . we seldom catch the sight of stars due to a flood of light in cities, causing fractions up in the air, making things so hazy that we cannot see the countless but only a few countable stars.whether due to population increase or some other reason, the soft (unpaved) earth 🌎 is being replaced with pavements, roads, infrastructure,etc.often by eating up enormous trees, the habits of innumerable birds . As a result of our unnatural and unhealthy routine, anxiety, stress and obesity are on the rise .While no sane person may deny the importance of nature and natural beauty,here are a few tips that may assist you finding ways within your busy routine to enjoy the company of nature
As students, you might have to stay up late at night and might get awakened on the eleventh hour in morning and complete your chorus in a rush before proceeding to your school or college. Many ofyou might be holding sandwiches in one hand, while getting on to your conveyance and nibble it all the way, whereas holding notes in the other hand to finish last minute study.

" I know many examples of students violating these noble laws and later on complaining of short - term memory issues, weaker eyesight, and poor assimilation ability. In an urban area, silence may be the most demanded thing. However, the silence may be achieved even on the busiest streets is the early morning.

" In order to touch your soul, silence is mandatory. Perhaps, this is why it is said, “ Silence.is a form of worship. Plenty of literature and aerobic centers are available where yoga or Tie Chi (a form of Chinese Martial Arts) may be practiced. Even if there is none, Google, and you would get a handful of aerobics or yoga exercises. Practicing these may require a silent place and preferably early morning time
