Thanks for that kind invitation to share my thoughts after reading! I really loved this piece. I live in a desert climate with very little green space with long, hot summers. Because of this, I tend to rely on photos, videos, and art to experience nature. It's been a long-held intuition of mine that these visual connections offer real benefits, so it's incredibly fascinating and validating to find scientific backing for that hopeful suspicion.
Thank you for the reminder that “rest can live in a glance”.
And on a separate note, huge congratulations on the New York Times feature! That's absolutely fantastic and so well-deserved. What an incredible journey to see your work reach such a wide audience.
Thanks again for this insightful and grounding article.
Kristina, thank you so much for this generous and thoughtful note. I’m really moved by the way you described finding rest through visual nature—especially in a place where greenery is scarce. It means a lot to hear that the piece resonated with your own lived experience and intuition. And thank you for the kind words about the NYT feature—truly appreciate you celebrating that with me.
I enjoyed looking at this, and the calm it brought with the images.
Thanks, Colette! So glad to hear it landed for you and appreciate you sharing.
