I’ve seen their amazing community and felt the warmth that they share when joining in on a ceremony, however, I’ve never been part of the village. I’ve also noticed how they really work together a lot. Whether preparing for a ceremony, harvesting, they are chattering away and connecting together. Now I’m part of a community I am starting to notice my old western ways of “wanting to do it on my own” and this is “my” land… etc. Balinese don’t think that way...

So much so the areas I used this solution are still mouldless and the one spot I miss has the thin layer of mould o...

But there is the crux or apex where Nature’s beauty all comes crashing together in the moment of life and death. For one species to survive it often has to eat or kill another. Not necessarily annihilate the entire species but just eat one here and there for it’s own survival. Life and Death must occur for the greater good of the whole ecosystem.The branches and leaves of the trees, as they die they become food for the microbes who in t...

And throughout the history of life on land, microbes repeatedly deconstructed every piece of organic matter on the planet—leaves, branches, and bones—fashioning new life from the dead. Yet our relationship with the hidden half of nature remains modeled on killing it, rather than understanding and fostering its beneficial aspects. In waging war against microbes for the last century, we’ve managed to unwittingly chisel away much of the foundation on which we stand.” This week’s Podcast is...
