#167 Wandering in the Wilderness — Dom Francks on confronting fragility, his love of nature, the disconnect from nature, working as a software engineer, viewing yourself as a piece of poetry, how we're always embedded in nature and being guided by intuition
The Pathless Path with Paul Millerd
The Importance of Wandering in Nature
Engaging in wandering in nature, without a specific destination, allows individuals to be guided by intuition and connect with the environment. This practice involves moving through a wild or wildish place with a sense of orientation towards the world or a ceremony to enact. It is different from mere hiking or goal-oriented activities, as it involves being guided by intuition and interacting with the surroundings as if all beings are aware and welcoming. Wandering helps open up perceptions, facilitating a deeper connection to oneself and the environment. This practice is not just about leisure but about actively engaging with nature and getting to know oneself better. It is a transformative experience that can positively impact one's relationship with work and bring about a contemplative state through movement in nature.
