Many of us lead busy lives. There is a tendency to focus on the big things and have the I must keep busy mindset. I know, in the past I have been there too.

Have you ever just stopped and watched the sunset? Switched off from the world and lived in the moment. It can be a rest powerful and liberating experience.

I spent some of the first evening of this holiday sat watching the sunset over Newcastle City, next to a sundial in a country park. I took my camera as the only digital connection I had to the world. With a glass of cider in hand I watched the sunset.

Many different colours in the sky, I sat in awe of this wonder. This is not the first time I’ve done this, but probably the most joy I’ve experienced doing so.

Having a stressful day? Feeling anxious? Perhaps switching off and watching thre sunset can help.

I hope you are having a great week and the sun is shining on you.
