Re:wild Your Life
Love the wild around you.
Learn more about your local environment, because the more you know about where you live and the history of the land that supports you and the people who lived there before you, the more connected you will feel to the wild where you ALREADY are.
Stop, drop and listen. (There’s a saying we like that points out we have two ears and one mouth for a reason ;-) What do you hear? What do you want to hear? And if you are unable to hear, find a window to take a beat and take in what you see. What do you see? What would you like to see?
Learn the species names of the trees (or plants, or bugs, or birds, you get the drift) in your neighborhood, because they’re your neighbors. Find something magical (or the magic in everyday things)!
And speaking of neighbors, do you know yours? Maybe it’s time you did. People need people and your neighbor may need you.
