Day Two of the Reconnection Retreat at @Peakanimalsanctuary was just as magical as Day One. 
 
The retreat itself felt so restorative to me, being with people who truly care for animals and nature as a whole.

So much love and connection was created at the Reconnection Retreat.  It was an absolute joy to witness and be a part of it.  Stay tuned for Day 2.

"Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded, and the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust.”

Even as the leaves are dying and getting ready to fall from the trees, they still give us the gift of beauty, changing colors that delights the eyes. Nature never fails to fascinate, even as it says goodbye.

There are 2 ways coffee is grown; sun-grown and shade-grown, and there is a big difference between the two:

Trees are magical and provide us with so much more than paper products or wood flooring. By being conscious consumers we help protect forests from falling victim to single-use products and find sustainable alternatives: www.wildforchange.com/blog-content... #wood #forests #paperproducts #trees

Did you know this little banana slug protects redwood saplings by eating other competing plants, turns organic matter into nutrient dense fertilizer, and disperses seeds across the forest floor? How’s that for being tiny but mighty? #redwoods #wildlife #interconnection #ecosystem #forests

When we recognize we are very similar to elephants, we realize they deserve a place in this world just as much as we do.  Please speak out for elephants on World Elephant Day and sign this petition: chng.it/926Mxw7gPr to ban trophy hunting of elephants and other endangered species. #elephants

My hope for everyone who watches this video is that we come to understand no matter what we all look like, we are all worthy of love.

Together with the other nexus elements of health, food and climate, #biodiversity & water are closely & inextricably linked.💧🌱🌏🧪

Read more about this and response options in the @ipbes.net #NexusAssessment: https://www.ipbes.net/nexus-assessment
"FACTS ABOUT WATER" "Biodiversity loss reduces water availability." "Unsustainable freshwater withdrawal, wetland degradation and forest loss have decreased water quality and climate change resilience" "At least 50 diseases are attributable to poor water supply, water quality and sanitation." "Wetlands and inland water bodies cover just 2.6 per cent of the terrestrial Earth surface but play a significant role in water regulation and climate change mitigation."

I too mourn the loss of so much of our wonderful world. I have watched Sir David every step of the way. I want him to know he's not alone and we are so grateful for educating us and we hear his cry and we are determined to try to make a difference #NoPlanetB 🌍 #BiodiversityCrisis🚨 #ClimateActionNow📣
Photo of Sir David Attenborough A Facebook post by David Attenborough fans with a quote claiming to be by the great man himself..... I paraphrase here.... " I've spent my life telling stories of....birds, forests, oceans and dying species......I wonder if anyone understood how heavy these stories became..... Of rainforest that no longer exists.... Glacier I stood on now vanished.... A species' I met now gone.... I've seen wonders of this world but also it's unraveling..... It hurts more than word can hold....I sit and grieve.... I don't want awards or praise....just thanks...just maybe id feel a little lesser like I'm mourning the losses on this planet alone....
