Charlotte Mason· Homeschool

9 Jun

“Never be within doors when you can rightly be without.”

It’s one of the first Charlotte Mason adages I learned by heart. I use it all the time to this day. I bet it’ll be one of those sayings my kids will remember when they’re fifty and say with a smile – albeit a slight roll of the eyes – “my mom was always saying…” and I’m so happy to think that.

When God made humans, He put them in a garden. Not a house, not a cubicle, but out of doors. We were not created to be inside as much as we are. You hear about “new” ways to be healthy like green therapy or beach yoga and it’s important to remember that getting outside is not something we are adding to civilization; it’s something we need to return to.

This website contains affiliate links. When an affiliate link is used, it is clearly labeled in the post. "Affiliate link" is a fancy way of saying that I am lightly compensated by a company when you click on that link and purchase a product of theirs. Your price does not increase but I do get a tiny "thank you" portion from the company for recommending their products. I only have an affiliate relationship with products I use and love.
