Learn by Noticing and Connecting by Ken Frame
In response to COVID-19 the ‘Live Up’ COVID COMMUNITY was set up to support our communities with practical wellbeing resources that can be used for these extraordinary circumstances of social distancing, community lockdown and quarantine. This article is from Ken Frame from and it combines 3 of the 5 Ways of Wellbeing (learning, noticing and connecting).
Andy Goldsworthy is an artist who likes to define what it is to connect with and to notice himself in this world using nature.

After watching the above vid, take yourself out in the rain (when it is raining obviously). P.S. Don’t forget to wrap up warm. No brollies, allow yourself to get wet, it is all part of the experience. Go for a walk, and if you feel inspired, make your own response to nature sculpture. When you get home there is nothing better than a hot shower, and a hot drink, to warm you back up.
Above is a photo I took on my walk ‘being’ Andy Goldsworthy. Then the next day I went down to the letterbox and to my surprise I found these left behind. Obviously, someone else enjoying a walk in the rain.
