Nothing is more soul-quenching or enriches the spirit quite like Mother Nature. She renders us speechless as we bask in her perfectly imperfect beauty forcing us to surrender and fall in harmony with her century-old rhythm and flow. In the elements, we are pared down to the essentials, tapping into the ancient state of our being. We are wholly at home in her surroundings which is why, after a year cooped up inside, all of us are craving the wind in our hair, the smell of rain on our skin, and the splendor of sun kisses on a balmy summer afternoon.
In fact, crafting space that strengthens our connection to the outside world has become an act of self-care. Many of us (Athena included) are learning how to garden in a bid to restore our kinship with nature and bring the outdoors in. If you have access to a balcony, patio, or backyard then it’s time to design an area where you can enjoy a breezy barbecue, casual cocktail, or swoony soiree. It’s all about finding the best outdoor furniture. So, we did the work for you and rounded up some of our favorites online. Happy decorating!
