Becoming NatureWise
A 4 month program learning
how to apprentice to nature
Next Enrollment opens in March of 2021
The word Scout comes from Old French “escoute” which means “Action of Listening.”
Deepen your connection and relationship with Nature, the plants, animals, and stories of the land.
Become fluent in the language of nature and one who knows what to listen for, what to observe, and how to read the signs so to be part of the conversations and stories of the forest occurring all around you.
Have you wondered what it means to belong to the land?
Have ever wanted to know what the forest is saying?
Have you ever been curious why birds make certain sounds or how they clue you in with what’s happening all around you?
Have you ever wondered how to identify the different trees or plants in your area?
Would you like to have a deeper and informed connection with nature?
This training is for those who want to shift from being a visitor or tourist to being in relationship with place.
About The Program
Due to quarantine, we've re-designed our summer scout program to be part online and part nature immersion. We've reduced the cost to make it available to people during these times while also being part of a felt sense of community gathering around the Virtual fireside (zoom) where we pool our learnings, stories and experiences together.
FLOW OF PROGRAM
It’s offered as an experiential learning process.
Access Online Course where through videos, audios and articles you’ll gain the core knowledge base. You'll always have access to your course and can return to it again and again.
You'll journey into nature on your own to experience the principles first hand and cultivate relationship with the plants, animals, trees and birds. You'll be offered core routines and ways of enhancing and engaging your senses so by the end of the journey you'll have a strong foundation of the language of nature and be tuned into the conversations therein.
We’ll gather around the virtual fireside (zoom) twice a month to pool our learnings and experiences together and hence be part of a more traditional collaborative learning.
You'll have one-on-one mentorship throughout the journey to help you dial in and tailor the journey to your passions and intentions.
Core Areas of Learning
Coyote Mentoring
Learning How To Learn
Experience the old ways of learning known as Coyote Mentoring.
Coyote is the trickster, the storyteller, the master of games and guiding us to our own discovery through direct experience and inspiring curiosity.
This program is not about learning information, facts, or memorization.
Here you're learning how to apprentice yourself to nature and enter the mind of the tracker, the naturalist, the scout.
You're learning how to ask the right questions, how to listen, and cultivate your own relationship with nature.
