When in Bali be care

When in Bali be careful not to step on offerings you will notice on the streets in front of shops, restaurants, houses, markets, basically everywhere. These offerings are called canang sari, where canang roughly translates to baskets of flowers and sari to essence. These baskets are made of banana or palm leaves and are nicely folded into little boxes, that are then filled with colourful flowers, some food (we mostly saw some candy or chocolates) and with burning incense stick and placed in front of houses and other places every morning to show gratitude and to wish for good for yourself, your family and others. 🙏🌸 . We can learn so much from this Balinese ritual, from taking the time to think about things we are grateful for, to having a ritual that guides us through this, which makes it easier to incorporate something like this into our everyday life. . I must admit that I don't have such ritual and sometimes just rush through day without taking the time to slow down my mind and think about my day, my experiences and just gather thoughts. . #urbanexplorer #springblossoms #springblossombali #awesomepic #unforgettableexperiences #springblossoms#urbanexplorer
