Earth Experience – Christine Valters Paintner

“The earth is the very matrix – the origin and sustaining environment – out of which our ability to care for ourselves emerges. The earth is the first place where we experience the kind of deep physical nourishment for our beings to thrive, but also a place of symbolic experience where we begin to make meaning from our experience.”
