It's such a relief to realise that no one else has the power to make you feel a certain way. In today's 5 Minutes In Nature, Liz shares a couple of stories that show how, even when it seems like someone can upset or insult you, that's never truly the case. Once you understand the power of your own thoughts, you see that words and beliefs have no built-in power of their own.

If you've enjoyed this taster then join me, Liz Scott, on Insight Timer. Each day on Insight Timer, I share 5 Minutes in Nature — daily moments to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the natural world.

On Insight Timer, you'll also find more of my meditations and courses designed to support your wellbeing and inner calm.

If you'd like to explore further, visit my website: lizscott.co.uk. There, you can also discover the Wellbeing Listener Training, a powerful way to deepen connection and listening in your life and work.

I'd love for you to join me in whichever way feels right — whether it's a weekly reflection here, or daily pauses together on Insight Timer.

Here's how you can join me on Insight Timer,:

On mobile. 1. Download the Insight Timer app from the app store. 2. Open the app and go through the initial preference settings. 3. If presented with a free trial offer for Member Plus, tap 'Skip' in the upper right corner if you wish to use the app for free. 4. Once setup is complete, click on the track link again to be directed to the specific content.

For desktop: 1. Click on the track link to be taken directly to the Insight Timer website where you can listen to the track.

Insight Timer has a mixture of free recordings as well as recordings and tracks that are part of their subscription service (which is about $60 a year, which I think is incredible value)!
