It's powerful for everyone to connect with nature. I think for myself it's important to go out alone to fully connect. If I go out with my kids or someone else I have a difficult time immersing myself in it, of allowing it to speak because I'm carrying around that identity of a “parent” of an “adult” when I'm alone I can forget myself and that's when the natural world can speak, when we forget ourselves and listen.
