Natural Shores : Beaches, Oceans and Deserts

                My Painting of Ocean 

In Human Design, my environment type is called Natural Shores — and this reveals a lot about where I feel most aligned, both physically and energetically. I thrive in transitional zones, places where two different worlds meet. Whether it's the edge of land and sea, a forest meeting a field, a riverbank, or even the boundary between city and nature, these spaces seem to feed my soul. I’m not made for extremes — not the depths of the ocean or the peaks of the mountains — but rather the balance point where contrast lives and breathes.

What truly nourishes me are liminal spaces, those edges where change is always happening — where solidity meets fluidity, quiet meets movement, and different energies converge. Even in life beyond nature, I’m drawn to the meeting of opposites — the blend of science and spirituality, logic and creativity, tradition and innovation. I often find myself playing the role of a bridge, walking between worlds, translating one side to another. That’s where I come alive.

My energy flows best when I’m in environments that reflect this contrast — like a home near water, a city flat overlooking a park, or a room that looks out onto two kinds of terrain. Even metaphorically, I’m most at peace when I’m involved in things that connect rather than separate. I’ve come to understand that my environment isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s my energetic support system. When I spend time in these “shoreline” places, my clarity deepens, my body relaxes, and my inner compass strengthens. These thresholds — where one thing becomes another — are where I truly belong.

I realised this when I was in Trivandrum. Oftentimes,  when I would go to the beach my whole mind and body would get rejuvenated. As if, some fresh energy has been infused inside. 

I believe that each of us has an environment which goes well with our form. We often neglect listening to our form. Form is intelligent. Infact, more than the brain itself. Brain runs on inputs and data. But our form has an innate algorithm packed in it. It has a specific diet which it needs for thriving and healing. Mine is Natural Shores. Oceans, deserts and spaces which blend, nourish me. 

They are my key to joy and nourishment. Go out and find your own Environment.
