Popstar Justin Bieber has decided to change the priorities in his life and focus more on God and nature instead of on his career.

ChristianToday.com reports that the Canadian singer of recent hits such as “Sorry” and “Love Yourself” has been seen outdoors at parks, apparently trying to take a break from his hectic life and commune with God. A picture from Instagram shows Bieber sprawled out on the grass in a park.

TMZ alleges that Bieber has experienced an “epiphany” and has decided to refocus and realign his priorities.

"He believes nature and religion—not concert venues and nightclubs—should become his life priorities," a source told The Business Standard.

In addition to focusing on a less hectic lifestyle, Bieber recently told fans through Instagram that he will no longer be taking photos with them.

"If you happen to see me out somewhere, know that I'm not gonna take a picture. I'm done taking pictures. It has gotten to the point that people won't even recognise me as a human. I feel like a zoo animal, and I wanna be able to keep my sanity,” he wrote.

"I realise people will be disappointed but I don't owe anybody a picture. And people who say, 'But I bought [your] album,' know that you got my album and you got what you paid for—AN ALBUM! It doesn't say in fine print whenever you see me you also get a photo,” he continued.

Bieber added that while he enjoys his career and appreciates the opportunities it has given him, he doesn’t want to “be a slave to the world and [its] demands.”
