  It is a well known fact that a person’s well being is directly related to the amount of green space one has in their daily life. Access to nature is vital, and can be a vital source to reduce stress and stay healthy. Nature is a wonderful source of healing and guidance to help us live a more fulfilling life. It can be a source of healing to help us when we are ill, a place to get away from our daily lives and relax, a place to get in touch with our inner selves, a source of inspiration and a place in which we can reconnect with our past. The sign at the entrance to the Riverwoods Homestay says that Nature is the best teacher. And, this is definitely true. Whether it is learning English, or learning about yourself, or learning how to enjoy life, Nature teaches us lessons every day. Life is all about balance.

Most of the birds are found in the Talacauvery Wildlife Sanctuary, which is quite far from Chikmagalur town.
