New research tells us what we already know intuitively—we are happier and healthier, more open and more compassionate, in nature. Nature heals, comforts and teaches. Here we learn about wonder and beauty, sorrow and loss, unity and wholeness. Ourblood pressure goes down. We relax. We are kinder to others—human and non-human. And, we experience the Divine, in ourselves, in the many critters and creatures around us, in the earth itself.As we live more disconnected from nature, we show the signs in our individual and communal health. And, in the health of our ecosystems. In this book, you will find a wide range of activities and exercises designed specifically to reconnect individuals and groups with the natural world and the spiritual presence within. Some exercises will be explicitly spiritual; others are more focused on the ecological processes that unveil nature’s wisdom. Some are oriented to groups, others to individuals. All are meant to encourage wonder, mindfulness and attentiveness to the Spirit that unites and connects us all. We encourage you to tailor and adapt these activities to different ages, communities and faith traditions.
