Fire Making Masterclass
The Fire is Within You Sunday February 14th, 2016 I've done this fire class a few times, and learn something new every time, including the fire bending trick that keeps smoke out of your eyes. Thanks as always to Robert Fallon for leading it, and everyone who came along. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature. The assurance that dawn comes after night and spring after winter. Rachel Carson, Environmentalist Another poem about wilderness that I love. Lost
Stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you Are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here, And you must treat it as a powerful stranger, Must ask permission to know it and be known. The forest breathes. Listen. It answers, SENSING THE LAND A sensory walkshop on the South Downs - Sunday 7th Feb We're lucky in Brighton. We're lucky because we live just 15 mins from truly beautiful countryside on the South Downs, a rich tapestry of wildlife, landscapes and tranquility, that 'weave together a story of people and place in harmony.' But what do you know about the history of the Downs? How do you feel when you're on them, when you're part of them? And what can the South Downs teach you about yourself? The South Downs have been inhabited since ancient times and there is a rich heritage of historical features and archaeological remains, including defensive sites, burial mounds and field boundaries... On this nature connected woodland and downland 'walkshop' - Sunday 7th Feb - we'll explore the inner and outer landscapes of the South Downs. You'll learn about the geology, and natural and human history of the Downs, and explore some relaxed practices to experience the landscape through your senses and your body, to learn more about the land and yourself. Join us. Details and booking here: www.meetup.com/School-of-the-Wild-Sussex |
