Are we aware of and participating in a conscious, reciprocal relationship with the nature around us?
In sharing two distinct stories, Shelby invites the listener to consider their relationship with the natural world. In a contemplative review she explores the relationship between humans and all beings in a complex web of symbiosis. Suggesting that in a regulated state and embodying our authentic deep instinctual desires, and our most conscious expressions of emotional vibration we inherently find ourselves in the flow of life and reciprocity.
I ask you, when is the last time you sad in the souil and really listened?
When did you last introduce yourself to a tree?
When did you last contemplate the wolf? Or the ladybug or the flower?
Are you being consciously aware of their presence because they may very well be of yours.
