Hey you! I’m here for you! You’re not alone and we’re all in this together. It’s likely the last few days or weeks have been a rollercoaster of emotions for you. Real talk: I feel anxious about uncertainty. I feel weird about saying “coronavirus” and “COVID-19” a million times a day. I want to connect with people yet be diligent about social distancing.
After spending my first full workweek at home, I realize I’m starting to wonder what the world “out there” looks like right now. Well, thank goodness for technology. To help you and me feel not-so-alone, I’m rounding up a compilation of some of the best LIVE stream cameras of nature, the most beautiful outdoor sceneries, and wildlife! My hope is to foster some optimism, positivity, connectedness, and joy while many of us stay tucked away at home. The world is still moving along, even if it might not feel like it.

And by all means, physically get outdoors! It’s open for business. Here in Minnesota, we are so lucky because our state parks, trails, and recreation areas remain open. If that’s not the case where you are, just step onto your backyard, driveway, jog around your neighborhood — and take a breath of fresh air wherever you are. It’s good for the mind, body, and soul. But be smart about it. Follow the CDC and WHO for the most up to date information and guidelines and take them seriously. Wash your hands, use sanitizer, and practice social distancing to reduce the spread of COVID-19. We each need to do our part.
Xoxo,
