Becoming Part of Nature Again: Dana Klisaninm. EP 318

The forest was once our human home. Psychologist Dana Klisanin is urging you to enter the forest to open your mind to the magic that trees, and plants and lakes and rivers can show you. Connect with the beings there, feel the messages flowing in and around you. The trees want you to admire them. They want to admire you. Dana Klisanin is an innovative psychologist. Named as one of Forbes' "50 Leading Female Futurists," she is deeply immersed in research exploring the resilience and adaptability of the human psyche in the face of existential challenges. This exploration is coupled with a profound commitment to fostering human-nature connections, exemplified by the founding of ReWilding: Lab—an initiative promoting nature's therapeutic and healing benefits. Dana's earlier investigations into digital behavior illuminated the positive potential of online platforms, highlighting digital expressions of altruism, kindness, and heroism. Honored by the American Psychological Association and the World Futures Studies Federation, her insights are shared in numerous books, journals, and prominent media outlets including BBC, TIME, and Fast Company. As co-founder of Evolutionary Guidance Media R&D, Dana consults with individuals and organizations.
