Lesson 1 – Introduction to Mastering Nature Awareness
Introduction to Mastering Nature Awareness
Hello and welcome to my Mastering Nature Awareness masterclass.
What is nature awareness and why does it matter… and how do you even get started with it? You can find the answers to these questions and more within the next few lessons.
Because, this masterclass is all about learning to develop mindful nature awareness. This means being able to go out and spend time in Nature – whether it is a nature walk or sit spot, for relaxation, nature study or journaling, and be consciously tuned in to and aware of the landscape, weather, trees, plants and wildlife living and growing around you.
In turn, this helps you interact with and get to know them on a much deeper level, fostering knowledge, kinship and a fullfilling sense of oneness and nature connection.
What you will learn:
In this masterclass you will learn,
- Why nature awareness is important
- How to practice mindfulness in nature
- How to develop and utilise your senses
- And how to interact with nature
Each lesson will guide you through a series of exercises and field activities that will help you awaken your senses and tune in to your surroundings so you can begin walking with mindfulness and deepen your connection to the nature around you.
You will also start practicing hands-on connection to the trees, plants, moss, grass and other life forms. By the end of this Mastering Nature Awareness masterclass you will be able to walk in nature with openness, mindfulness and awareness and truly tune in and connect to the environment and the life around you.
Who is this masterclass for?
This masterclass is for anyone seeking greater knowledge of and connection to Nature.
- If you dream of walking in Nature, noticing all the wonderful details and life living and growing around you, and being able to connect to nature on a much deeper level, this masterclass is for you!
- If you love the romance in wild roses, dappled leaves, babbling brooks and wild geese, then this masterclass is for you.
- And if you enjoy finding poetry and paintings in mountains, meadows, woodlands and waves, then this masterclass is for you.
Because, the lessons in this masterclass will help you develop your awareness to notice all the subtle and beautiful details around you so that you can walk through nature with renewed enthusiasm and confidence, experiencing the joy that comes from mindful Nature connection.
What you will need:
In order to complete the field activities in this masterclass, you will need access to a safe space to use as a nature sit spot or a safe place to do a nature walk. This does not need to be somewhere wild and remote – a garden, city park or any other green area, whether rural or urban will do.
You will also need a journal or workbook for your written exercises and reflections. This can be lined, blank, graphed… whatever feels comfortable for you.
Are you ready to get started?
Are you feeling excited to get out there and start expanding your awareness? Are you ready to feel the thrill of interacting with and developing your very own connection to Nature? Are you ready and rearing to get started? Yes? Then let’s go!
