Will try horizontal filming next time and sharing one exercise each week on our interconnection with nature. 

More Senses to Consider

Interesting to consider how much more capacity humans may have than our education may tell us. I found a sheet I drew up from coursework in ecopsychology describing more than 5 senses, as identified by Aristotle. Food for thought how complex our sensory connections really are. This is only some of several pages of them grouped by Project Nature Connect into four categories: 

  • The radiation senses: sense of color, sense of moods associated with color, sense of temperature.
  • The feeling senses: sensitivity to gravity, air and wind pressure, and motion.
  • The chemical senses: hormonal sense, such as pheromones, hunger for food, water or air.
  • The mental senses: pain, external and internal, mental or spiritual distress, sense of self, including friendship, companionship and power, psychic capacity.

Color and Design

Here is an exercise to try to tap into your personal color sense. Make a list of colors out of a crayon/pencil box and make two columns. Felt sense (what the color makes you feel in connection to the natural world) and rational sense (what you've been told these colors represent) and see where if any differences exist.

    Staying close to the wealth of nature and making with my hands bring me greatest joy and comfort. You can find me on Instagram as @waterwomanknits, and on Ravelry as Waterwoman-Knits.
