This #earthconversevisualization focuses on our own death.  Maybe not something you want to think about let alone visualize but ‘our death is the most important fact of our life’ (Ray Hillis quoting on the #earthconversepodcast) To contemplate our death is an empowering and liberating act of kindness, to ourselves, each other and the earth that is our home. I am grateful to the teachings of nature and such wise kin like my guides from School of Lost Borders and Animas Valley, and this is given in honor of all lives and deaths.

Following on from the 50 episode-rich anthology of the #earthconversepodcast, Earth Converse offers a bonus series of future visualizations. To help us step into life-affirming futures for ourselves, each other and the earth that is our home. This visualization takes us back to basics about our connection with nature. Drawing on research led by Miles Richardson and the Nature Connectedness Research Group, it brings alive the 5 pathways:  senses, emotions, beauty, meaning and compassion.  Research that also shows (as our hearts know) the more connected with nature we feel, the greater our life satisfaction and wellbeing, and the more likely we are to take actions which care for the planet.

What is your ‘covid inspired’ nature re-connection story? In this week’s #earthconversepodcast, communication coach and facilitator Martina Tadli articulates what many people have experienced in this ‘covid time’..a story of reconnecting with nature. Even those who don’t have easy access to it.  In doing so, she reminds us of the value of small steps of attention and gratitude.  And she gives voice to her collaboration with Catherine Andrews. Together they have created Natural Resourcing to help leaders and professionals thrive at work, through engaging with nature. And rather than closing things down, we open things up at the end – where she beautifully shares deeply personal stories of her own nature connection, including of ancestral healing.  And an invitation to try solo time in nature.

To what end? Nando has been on an existential inquiry since childhood. Which has led to an ‘obsession of competence’, to prepare for judgement and be in service to others.  A path which has included being the Director of Health and Wellbeing with the European Commission.  And confirmed by the death of his beloved mother, a calling to be of service to dying people and collapsing communities. We talk about death and eternity, facing our fears, the 4 power animals and authentic relationships in organisations, praying to the earth, valuing time and credibility, and going beyond the more than human community. And the aspirations of being an elder. We end with a little poem and meditation.

How are you embracing life? Wild wise woman Mirjam Wagner, who is committed to her soul path and in helping others, has just released her book Yin For Life.  We delve into her writing journey “another round of healing”, as itself an example of embracing the yin and the yang.  And resonating deeply with Bill Plotkin (episode 40) she brings her own perspective of wildness being wholeness.  A dancer of light and dark embracing it all, she talks about the vulnerability of the invisible, jumping into the void, being the artist and the butcher, freedom and responsibility of making our choices, female archetypes, and being a ‘lone wolf’ and in a conscious relationship, amongst it all. “I wish that we open up to all aspects to which mother nature offers us and which we are made of”. And beautifully, she shares her hope for Mallorca. And offers us a body, mind and soul blessing to close our conversation.

What is your intuition intention? If you have been tuning into the #earthconversepodcast, you will know that intuition is a key theme.  And in this week’s episode, we have the joy of Emilie Janda, who with her colleague Lena through their beautiful offerings at Art.Body.Mind help people access their intuition. “Whether you want to think of it as something mystic or a tool, intuition wants to play with you”. Emilie as a communicator, coach, energy healer and art dealer is playful and pragmatic, with both science and the mystical in her pockets.  And here she talks about knowing, accessing and trusting our intuition. As well as leisure travel in the cosmos, past and future lives,  curiousity and intentionality. And connecting to nature with her heart.
