Rachel Black invites you to put your gum boots on and take a meditative stroll in nature. Black believes there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing (except maybe if you’re up north and experiencing the floods or any extreme weather. Lots of love and stay safe!) So, put on or take off whatever you need to and get out in it! Black verbally walks you through her daily morning walking practice with her dog, Vali and her artist’s way of seeing. Be calmed and nourished by the background sounds of nature and Rachel’s delighted voice.

Ps, the photograph for this episode was taken in Lynda Gardener’s Room and Board in Daylesford, Victoria Australia. It would be a perfect place to stay and have your own nature stroll!

As the stroke of midnight draws near, Rachel Black has a realisation and immediately hits record. Black speaks in a sleepy voice sitting up in bed... perhaps the rawest of the BRUT episodes...

Wow! It's Spring!!!! Rachel rejoices in feeling human again.  Rachel hits record even though she is not in the best of mental states... and she wonders if she should in fact hit  publish as it's all rather raw. But then she remembers that this is in fact the point and furthermore the title of this here humble podcast. She eventually chills the fuck out and tells a few good snake stories.
