Empalthy Walk with Nature
We believe that the tools of transformation should be available for everyone. These guidelines clarify how to credit and use our logos, content, and materials.
Overview
Looking at wisdom traditions all around the planet, a solo experience in nature is probably one of the longest standing traditions for connecting to Source. These can vary from a short period, such as an hour, to more extended experiences of weeks or even months.
Practice
To deepen and enhance your journaling experience, we recommend you take a 1-2 hour empathy walk with Mother Earth as soon after the journaling as possible.
Check the Presencing Institute and u-school Policy for tools usage.
Principles
Once you have found your place there are three ‘do’s’ and three ‘don’ts’ for the practice:
Don’ts
- Avoid devices or distractions. Ideally leave your devices at home but, if not, power down and put them out of sight. Leave journals and sketchbooks at home as well.
- Do not eat during the practice.
- Limit your movement.
Do’s
- Be fully present.
- Open your heart to Mother Nature as a living being. You will be amazed at what she gives back to you.
- Attend to what’s emerging from that moment, in Nature and in yourself.
