Connecting with the Land

"Connecting with the Land: Nature Relationships in Multiple Dimensions" is a collection of techniques, philosophies, and stories that can support powerful and nourishing nature encounters and relationships. Nature awareness, nature appreciation, personal transformation and alchemy, health and wellness, vision, motivation and wisdom for environmental service, creativity, ethics, and inspiration can all be enhanced with the methods described in this book. The book describes and illustrates diverse ways of engaging with nature that come from multiple traditions and realms of knowledge: science, folklore, religions, spirituality, art, song, dance, energy work, healing traditions, survival skill education, meditation practices, environmental advocacy, and more. This publication emerged from the Connecting with the Land Workshop Series, which has provided a variety of nature connection workshops designed to support people from diverse backgrounds in taking the next steps to enrich their relationships with the natural world. We can come together in respect and reverence for nature.
