✿ Moss : Mindful, Peaceful and therapeutic experience

Beautiful moss everywhere. :D

I really enjoy observing moss when I take a walk. I like moss since I visited “Hakone museum of Art” in Japan, which has a beautiful Japanese garden with various types of moss, beautiful trees and so on. Specially I was fascinated by moss, however I did not really learn names because there are so many of them at the time.

There are many books about moss available nowadays.

So I bought some books about moss, and started learning more about it.

Moss has a sacred energy.

Observing, touching and even being in the area of moss, you feel relaxed, peaceful and your soul is purified. Beautiful fresh moss grown means that it is a peaceful place.

That is why I like moss. Specially I find fresh moss has such a pure energy. So peaceful.

It is wonderful that you can take a walk and enjoy observing moss and feel peaceful, however you can bring them near you.

Moss terrarium（苔テラリウム）: It refers to growing moss-like plants in a transparent container or bowl-like container, and adding decorations to create a small world view.

Moss Ball（苔玉）: The roots of a plant are wrapped in potting soil to form a ball, with moss attached around it and secured in place with thread.

Luckily I have beautiful moss in my back garden, so I collected them, wash them and put some in a small container, put a miniature figure and decorate it. Taking care of moss is equivalent to take care of yourself. A moment of peace is there when you observe the moss terrarium, check the conditions and mist water…etc. Sometimes a moss fell down from the roof I think. I found a beautiful round moss on the decking in my back garden.

It made me happy as if I found a treasure.

A lot of things to talk about, however I shall stop this article for now.

With appreciation
