Thank you for your post Eric. I went to your website, explored, and read your post in full. 

I so appreciate your suggestion that we all need to include more reflective practice in our daily lives. 

Playing daily outdoors and intentionally building a reflective practice has helped me to heighten my appreciation of the gifts of nature and share those gifts with children and adults.

I believe that one of the best ways to help us embrace our wild nature as adults is to teach reflective practice to children. There are many ways to create avenues for these learning practices. In the end we will create a kinder, more gentle world for all beings. 

I don't know if you are aware of Zoe Weil and the Institute for Humane Education but I highly recommend you and readers of this post check out  http://humaneeducation.org 

Look forward to a continuing exploration.
