Pay attention to the rhythm of your own breathing along with the sound of the wind and the cries of the wild birds. On tiny isolated and uninhabited coral cays, nature is all-powerful. No man-made structures impinge. Along quiet country roads talk to producers selling their fruit and vegetables and honeys and jams at roadside stalls, and stop for a chat with friendly locals in small town shops and cafes.
