“Your heart wants to greet the sun and the sun wants to greet you.”
Appreciate Each Precious Day with Angela Vincent
There’s no wrong way to connect with nature. Getting out of your head and into the dirt is so simple, yet the resistance is often fierce. For this segment’s FIRST INTERVIEW – we have the amazing Angela Vincent, nature mentor, grad student, grief counselor, and educator. Angela is a huge proponent of nature connection, and shares the benefits of remembering our sacred roots. We explore what inspired her to study permaculture, how to handle news of environmental devastation, and why linear thinking prevents us from reaching our full potential.
