Every week, I share quiet reflections on nature and our place in it.

Giving yourself permission to step away from the human-made pandemonium is not the same thing as ignoring the problems we collectively face, it is honoring the fact that you are just one person, one who needs rest, community, and kindness to do their best work. Equally essential to our wellbeing is a relationship with the natural world. We need nature to feel whole and connected to the bigger picture.
