On summer nights, when the air is light and the sky is clear, stargazing becomes a true wellness practice. It doesn't take much: a lawn, silence, darkness all around. And suddenly the universe reveals itself, vast and infinite.
Observing the sky is not just a romantic or poetic gesture. It is an act of mindfulness: it means returning to the present, breathing calmly, realising that you are part of something much bigger.
Why stars calm the mind
Science confirms it: contemplating the night sky reduces stress, promotes relaxation and stimulates a sense of connection with the universe. When we look up at the constellations, our mind lets go of everyday worries and thoughts and opens up to a sense of wonder and gratitude.
The next time you find yourself under a starry sky, try turning that moment into a little ritual:
- Find a quiet place, away from artificial lights;
- Lie down on the grass and let your breathing become slow and regular;
- Don't try to recognise the constellations right away: just observe and let yourself be surprised;
- When your mind wanders, gently bring it back to the sky, to its immensity.
Over time, this simple gesture becomes a true meditation, capable of regenerating and bringing inner balance.
The magic of the yurt at night
Sleeping in a Yurt is a natural invitation to this kind of experience. Go out in silence, walk barefoot on the cool grass and look up at the sky: the heavens become your ceiling, and the rustling of the trees your soundtrack. In those moments, the yurt is not just a physical refuge, but a bridge between the earth and the cosmos, a place to rediscover your space in the universe.
