Mountains calling

From the top of a mountain, we are able to witness life from a new, fresh & unique perspective, bringing us a true sense of self awareness. Mountains have always captured our imagination, calling us to scale their heights or pay homage to their greatness. Mountains symbolise vision, the ability to intuitively see beyond our immediate reality. Mountains are also considered holy, a spiritual place. Their motivating energy is undeniable. When we climb a mountain, we feel a sense of achievement, playfulness, peace, passion & strength.

Mountain views are highly prized. Even from a distance, mountains remind us of how small & vulnerable we are, which comes as a wonderful relief. Whether we have mountain views at home or a photograph of a mountain, we rely on these free, awe-inspiring & mysterious earthly giants to provide the much needed inspiration, stimulation & power. They teach us how to overcome our insecurities or fears with resilience, resolve & self-belief. They are a daily reminder of our humble place, in the grand scheme of our universe. “Great things are done when men & mountains meet. They give you a challenge & you try to express that challenge by climbing them” – E. Hillary
