How to find Freedom in Nature (with Micah Mortali)

Krish Surroy

Jan 05, 2021

Welcome to 2021! I am sure that after all the craziness, weirdness and restriction of 2020, the thought of more FREEDOM in this year will appeal to you.

Micah Mortali contends that one of our biggest pathways to freedom and growth is through nature. As an author, outdoor guide and director at Kripalu, his life’s work is reconnecting modern people with the restorative powers of nature through mindfulness in the great outdoors.

In this episode we discuss why technology drives our need to connect with the ‘more than human’ world, how Covid19 actually drew many people back to nature and why spending time in nature has so many tangible benefits.

We finish off discussing tools and practices that Micah teaches in his book - Rewilding – that we can use, even if we live in cities, to find freedom through nature every single day.

The Sacred Wild Podcast

As the world gets busier, more urban and technology driven, more and more people are feeling cut off from the natural world, community, other people...and themselves. All while climate change and ecological degradation continue.

On the Sacred Wild Podcast, we explore our relationship with the 'more than Human' world, with the ecosystem and ultimately with ourselves and our own personal growth.

We speak with activists, spiritual teachers, creatives, indigenous people and wellbeing experts to see how can come back into balance and ultimately become more healthy, whole and happy.
