Nurture Connection with Nature

Let yourself be drawn to a being in nature - tree, rock, plant, bird... Write a love letter to that being telling it about what it is like to be near it. Then name one concrete next step you can take today.

Take time to enjoy a piece of fruit. Then, write about all the aspects of the natural world that took part in the growth of that piece of fruit: sun, rain, roots, soil, etc. Then note what emotion is underneath and what you need most.

Think about the season you are currently in and the changes in the world around you. How are those changes also mirrored inside of you? Then capture one pattern you are noticing in your life right now.

Was there a time in your life when you felt most connected to the natural world? What was that like for you? Then write one gentle reframe you are willing to test this week.

Find yourself a tree friend who you can visit a few times. Linger with this tree, perhaps sit under its branches. Write from the perspective of the tree to you. What wisdom does it have for you? Then name one concrete next step you can take today.
