Thanks for this. Nature is SO important! I worry that this disconnection from nature is happening earlier and earlier now, with the advent of the "digital babysitter." Children are beginning to forget how to entertain themselves without a digital device. Children should spend time outside, connecting with nature, looking for bugs, building things from sticks, and getting lost in their imagination. I worry for a generation of adults who grow up so disconnected.💚🌿
I hear you @kristaluton, there is a worry, but there has also been a huge shift with a lot of people returning to the wild, to the wilderness, in one way we can not stop what is happening, so we need to educate and relearn. We start with ourselves and hopefully allow others to see for themselves the many benefits of reconnecting with nature. I try not to get too upset by it all as we could easily become overwhelmed, we really need to stay positive.
Positivity is indeed the way forward! A good friend once said to me that all you do is show people how happy you are 💚
