The Elements Are a Powerful Metaphor

Sally Kohn: I feel like there's a sense in the dominant culture that we are very separate from nature. We don't understand nature to be all around us every minute, she says. How do you reconcile that you are of nature on a sort of practical level in a daily way?Kohn: There can be really simple practices for that but also just when we turn on the faucet. That's the water element or when we experience drinking water we're taking water into our bodies.
