As a spiritual person,
nature for me has always
been a healing place.
Going back all the way to
my childhood on the
farm, the fields and
forests were places of
adventure and self-
discovery. Animals were
companions and friends,
and the world moved at a
slower, more rational pace
than the bustling cities
where I'd resided my
adult life.
