Human Development through Nature Connection - Part 2 - Practices

Historic Webinar Recording

In the second of our four-part series on Human Development through Nature Connection, we will look at practices that bring about and activate relationships within the natural world. These practices impact us through an indigenous pedagogy that teaches through experience. Only then can the depths of our development take place.

It is not possible to gain the developmental aspect of connection through just having knowledge of it. It needs to be experienced on all levels. This process of fully embodying the experience allows the unfolding of a dynamic relationship.

Many of these practices and skills develop a deep and lasting bond between humans and the natural world. They come from an ancestral wisdom of living with nature, where their survival depends upon these connections. In today's society, we have created many layers of insulation from the experience itself, and these barriers lessen the opportunity to feel the relationship. This actively stunts our ability to develop.

There are many ways to create surface area for connection to occur, and some are more effective than others. 

We do not need to go back to the Stone Age to rebuild these connective ropes; however, we do need to be strategic in actively engaging in practices that create, deepen, and reconstruct these connections so our development can take place.
