I just got back from a really amazing backpacking trip in the wilderness of Wyoming, and I’ve been reflecting on how nature, wilderness, sacred lands, whatever you want to call them, have always been a source of refuge, spiritual rejuvenation, and healing for humans.

But a question I and so many others are grappling with right now is, how do we continue to find inspiration and healing in a world that is being so deeply harmed.

My guest today is author, travel writer, and speaker, Adam Sawyer.  Adam is leading a series of facilitated discussions through the Oregon Humanities Project around grieving in nature and addiction recovery in nature.

Adam talks and writes openly and beautifully about how nature helped heal him on his journey through addiction and grieving, and I am thankful to be able to share this conversation with you all.

I love hearing feedback, guest ideas, or just a hello, and you can reach me at [email protected] or on the coast range radio instagram feed.
