Here is a lovely collection of nature escapes close to Memphis, TN. This is a nice website I often go to looking for ideas. It was started by Mahal during Covid to capture some locations within a short drive. Maybe you'll find it inspiring and useful too!

The findings suggest that focused attention meditation can induce changes in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics that are similar to those observed during sleep. This research suggests that mental training might offer a non-invasive method to support the brain’s waste clearance systems.
