MIND, BODY, & Â SOIL
Increasing Connection + Sensation
with Adrian Grenier
So many of us have had the experience of nature, of farming, bringing us back to ourselves. Adrian Grenier’s story isn’t much different – several years ago he found himself disconnected and in a state of constantly numbing. Coming back to the idea of ‘chop wood, carry water’ he came home to a place after changing just about everything. Adrian and I talk about the nature of disconnection and the connection we can find in nature. We start with the idea that everything has to die – even versions of ourselves – in order to nourish our future, where we might even find ourselves in the infinite. One of Adrian’s philosophies is to constantly be increasing sensation and connection – so we dive into just what that might mean on a practical level. Adrian is an apprenctice of the land and exploring what it means to live at Earth Speed.
