" Relationships are
never chance events. "
Keith Ablow
" That awe, wonder and beauty
promote healthier levels of
[ immune-boosting anti-inflammatory ]
cytokines suggests that
the things we do
to experience these emotions
- taking a walk in nature,
losing oneself in music,
beholding art-
have a direct influence
upon health and
life expectancy. "
Dacher Keltner,
Reasearcher
" For a long time
I have been of the opinion
that artists don't necessarily
know what they're doing.
You don't necessarily know
what kind of universal concept
you're tapping into."
Leonard Nimoy

I think it's true that looking at great art, scenery, or photographs gives us us a different perspective that may affect our immune system indirectly. Anything that induces reflectiveness should. Great pictures and quotes! And Pixie is a beauty!

ReplyDeleteyes, we need the natural and man-made arts.
ReplyDeleteAloha Cloudia, Oh yes, so true this is, and another for me is the ever pleasing campfire, the glowing pile of embers ignite such peace and of course, the perfect roasted marshmallow.
