“A bird’s song calms your nervous system. Breathing in soil helps you to feel safe and release serotonin within. Medicines and wild foods grow at our feet. The air holds anti-inflammatory bacteria. Our oxygen is a continuous reciprocal relationship with the rooted ones and the rivers and seas.. Death is alchemised into life by the fungi and insects. If you listen, look and feel the land’s true stories you will see how each moment you are held by this life, by this earth. The wild isn’t the nonsensical, chaotic, dirty, cruel place. It is kind, reciprocal and nourishing, and it has woven you into belonging since your first breath.”
