Our Nature explores the methods, systems and practices that bring us into greater alignment with the natural world.

We have an opportunity and a biological need to connect with our environment. And yet, so many of us, have distanced ourselves from nature, favoring the comforts that technology and modern culture bring us.

What I began to notice was that the further we are from the natural world, the further we are from ourselves, and in turn, the less healthy, less happy we are in general. Our Nature exists to change that.

Each week, I'll interview fascinating experts from a variety of fields - from Ayurveda to foraging, from natural dyeing to homesteading, all in an attempt to help each of us connect with the natural world that exists around us, and live healthier, happier, lives.

What people are saying…

 

"Yoga and reiki have been the only two things that have brought me closer to the natural world, and now with this podcast, I feel like all of a sudden I was given a whole platter of different ways and options to connect to nature, discover, and learn all these different practices, teachings, and philosophies that I would not have otherwise known about or be interested in. Added bonus: I can take what works for me and make that a part of my practice, my routine, my life. So I just want to say bravo to you, Alyssa, for creating Our Nature. Thank you for sharing your curiosity through it, because in turn, you’re sparking curiosity in others."
