A NATURE CONNECTED PERSONAL
GROWTH PROCESS


 

Improve your life and the environment,too.

 

Have you ever had a good experience in nature, backyard, backcountry or with a home aquarium? Wasn't there something of value for you in it?

There are strong similarities between good experiences in nature and the following incident. Do your recognize them? If you do, no matter your age, you may walk nature's path to a fulfilling livelihood, self-improvement and responsible relationships.

 

 

AN ESSENCE OF NATURE:

"In Scotland, as was their ancient custom, farmers were overturning hay bales to exterminate the rats that lived beneath them.

A trio of rats tried to flee but, unlike the other fleeing rats, these three were attracted to staying closely together which limited their ability to escape. This attracted the farmers.

Upon investigation, they found that the middle rat of the three was blind, its companions were guiding it to safety while risking their own.

Deeply moved, the farmers felt attracted to sparing the lives of these rats. Instead of killing them, in awe and unity they respected them."

ASK YOURSELF THIS IMPORTANT QUESTION:

Do you recognize that the farmers and the rats benefited from natural attractions they fulfilled? That was a value of the farmer's short connection with nature.

 

DOES THIS MAKE SENSE TO YOU?

Our research reports show that, as the incident demonstrates, people can connect the attraction energies in themselves with attraction energies in nature and positive change results.

"I have become more sensitive to certain practical things around the house, like recycling, water usage, habitat destruction on my own property and use of electricity."
Maggie S.

Through special sensory nature activities that you can use, distribute and teach, people improve their lives by using this connecting process in parks, wildlife sanctuaries or even with potted plants.

Through the activities, as with the farmers, a powerful, balancing unifier comes into play that has healing properties. This unifier is dormant in our lives simply because we live excessively disconnected from nature.

"Learning to love Nature enabled me to bring environmental concepts into my consciousness that I have always felt but could not verbalize."
Frank B.

 

HERE'S WHAT IS NEW:

Research over the past 22 years has recently produced a powerful reconnecting process that consists of 124 sensory nature activities.

The process in each of these activities brings natural attractions into our awareness. It produces the supportive wellness, balance and environmental respect that the farmers enjoyed.

You can easily use, teach and distribute the process in your community as a part or full time livelihood.

HERE'S WHAT RESULTS :

"The reconnecting with nature process helped me relieve physical and mental pain. I observed it positively affect people suffering from chronic physical or emotional illness."

"it enhanced self-esteem and reduced my dependencies"

"empowered me to help others help the environment"

"it significantly decreased my stress and depression."

"powerfully supports me emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically,"

"helped me restore my sense of belonging and place,"

"is a form of prayer or 'conscious contact' with my Higher Power",

"constantly offers experiences I can trust, I sleep better."

"instilled a lasting sense of belonging to something worthwhile"

"nature's purity and beauty rejuvenated my true self."

"retrained my 'stinkin' thinkin' so annoyment became enjoyment."

HERE'S THE PROCESS IN ACTION:

"An activity helped me become aware of my attraction to the crescent moon as it hung over two hills near my home. Soon, its mellow glow, framed by peaks and trees, embraced me in a wordless, ancient primordial scene. Timeless power, peace and unity swept me up. I just wanted to stay in that state of awe, I felt in balance with all of reality. I was simply "BEING." No tension, no pressing goal, just truly belonging to the global community.

This natural energy captured my stress laden pulse and seduced it to the rhythms of Earth. The sleeping disorder I have battled all my adult life dissolved in this power. For the first time in decades, I gently fell asleep after dark and arose shortly after dawn. I celebrated the breakthrough and I thanked nature. I thanked the activity, too, for it lets me reconnect whenever I choose.

 

"My strong positive connection with nature helped me turn sarcasm into a learning experience."
Emmon B.

Too often we suffer and feel helpless because the deterioration of humanity and the environment hurts us and we are unaware of its cause.

Research demonstrates that the stress arising from our extreme sensory separation from our nurturing origins in Nature underlies most of our unsolvable personal, social, and global problems.

In a democracy, to reach our hopes and dreams the knowledge we discover must be accompanied by a readily available educational process that motivates and enables the public to apply the knowledge.

With respect to our destructive disconnection from nature, the web page links, below, empower you to use and teach an effective rehabilitating process that will help you improve most settings and relationships.
