We were lying under a blanket of stars in Hells Canyon, Idaho, surrounded by North America’s deepest river gorge. \xa0Steep cliff-faces rise up either side of the raging river, standing overhead like gods of yesteryear. \xa0Timeless, waiting for us to remember them…
In hosting our LIVE nature immersions, I have witnessed firsthand the immediate, spontaneous, and incomparably transformative force of simply being in nature. \xa0
The experience is a homecoming. \xa0A remembering.
It feels a bit like ‘ahhhh, there you are…’’
‘There you are’ (the awe and wonder which washes over a person when in the presence of raw nature) is quickly followed by…’here I am’…and ‘here I am’, I mean, well– Is that not what we are all after? \xa0We all want to be at home in our bodies, held like a jewel, in the palms of Mother Earth, secure, nourished, nurtured, and content. \xa0And any step we take away from that center point causes disillusionment, dysfunction, and dysbiosis in equal amounts to the steps that were taken. \xa0Nature connection, I am convinced, is therefore the most-needed medicine of our time. \xa0
‘But what does it even mean…Nature Connection?’ \xa0
