It was a beautiful late afternoon walk on my beloved path today. The blanket of snow still covering the land glistening under the hazy setting sun. In my sit spot, I could feel the rhythm of nature, the orchestra of sounds, the sensations of the cold air, and all of this filled me up. When I gain so much from nature, I am thankful and today, I walked home thanking (out loud!) the trees, the ducks, the air, the sun, all of nature. My heart is happy. How do you connect with nature?

We are nature ❤️

Nature connection is not a luxury. It is practical, transformative, and revolutionary.

The systems that shape our lives today are built on extraction and exploitation, and have already caused profound damage. If we want a future that is genuinely liveable, we have to move beyond these models while there is still time.

Reconnecting with Nature forces us to question value, power, and responsibility. Making it accessible to everyone is vital if we want a new way of living with the world to take root.

There is a lot happening that undoubtably is contributing to a whole range of thoughts, feelings, and actions.

What if the calm you feel when you hear birdsong isn't a coincidence, but ancient evolutionary wiring ... a signal that once meant safety? Musical ecologist and rapper Louis VI says humans are hardwired to nature's sonic language, but modern life has drowned it out. He explores how we can tap back i...

Trees + Mary Oliver = ❤️🌳💚

Can You Imagine?

For example, what the trees do
not only in lightening storms
or the watery dark of a summer’s night
or under the white nets of winter
but now, and now, and now – whenever
we’re not looking. Surely you can’t imagine
they don’t dance, from the root up, wishing
to travel a little, not cramped so much as wanting
a better view, or more sun, or just as avidly
more shade – surely you can’t imagine they just
stand there loving every
minute of it, the birds or the emptiness, the dark rings
of the years slowly and without a sound
thickening, and nothing different unless the wind,
and then only in its own mood, comes
to visit, surely you can’t imagine
patience, and happiness, like that.
