We find healing as we connect with nature. When we spend time in nature observing and appreciating the natural beauty and living organisms all around us, we are gently energized, we feel better, our world grows, and we find gratitude in our connection. We find healing as we remember that we are a part of nature too. We come home to who we are. We wake and sleep as the sun and moon rise and set. We breathe as the waves come and go. As the earth hums and the trees talk, we are aligned with nature's rhythms. As the seasons change, we feel refreshed as the first flowers of spring arrive. We feel renewed and energized by the activity and warmth of summer. We let go just as the leaves drop in the fall. And we find grounding in time for reflection, as the snow tucks in the earth for winter. You connect mind, body, and spirit—the natural flow of our breath hums along with nature.

“We are all connected. This is globalisation. We need to have a more contextual approach. Even when we make a little play, we cannot talk about the individual topic without thinking about which kind of society this individual is living in.” Bárbara Santos is a Brazilian director, author, performer, activist and the artistic director of KURINGA in Berlin, where she is currently based. For twenty years, Bárbara worked alongside Augusto Boal, who the creator of Theatre of the Oppressed. Through adventuring in theatre and performance, Bárbara accompanies her participants on voyages that uncover the connection between personal experiences and societal structures in a globalised world.
