Long before we lived in houses, sat in offices or carried smartphones, we evolved in direct relationship with the natural world.
For thousands of generations, our ancestors woke with the rising sun, moved across landscapes, drank from rivers, sheltered beneath trees and lived in rhythm with the seasons.
The natural world wasn't somewhere they visited.
It was home.
Perhaps that's why so many of us feel something shift when we step outside.
Our breathing slows. Our shoulders soften. We feel more present, more grounded, more ourselves.
Not because Nature is performing some magical trick.
But because the body recognises something the mind has forgotten.
A relationship that has existed for far longer than modern life.
A relationship that reminds us we belong here too.
🌿 This reflection is inspired by themes I explore in The First Remembering.... a self-guided journey for those longing to slow down, reconnect and remember their place within the natural world.

Today David Attenborough turns 100… and honestly, I don’t think there are many people who have shaped the way humanity sees the natural world more than he has.
A few years ago, I did a journaling exercise where I had to imagine a father figure… someone grounded, wise, safe and proud of me. Someone who could truly see me.
Without hesitation, I chose David Attenborough.
Growing up, I didn’t really have that grounded father figure, so perhaps that’s why it felt so easy to hear his iconic voice in my head as I wrote the imaginary letter from him to myself. Gentle. Encouraging. Full of wonder and reassurance.
And somehow, I’ve carried him within me ever since.
I think he would be proud of every person trying to protect nature, reconnect with it, help others appreciate it or simply remind people that we belong to this Earth too.
Thank you, Sir David.
For the awe. For the perspective. For helping us fall back in love with the living world.
And happy 100th birthday to an absolute legend 💚
