A Journey to Remembrance, Relationship, and Renewal
Live Online Course
September 10 – October 15, 2026
Human beings are intimately woven into the living tapestry of Nature.
The forests, waters, winds, soils, and plants that surround us are not separate from who we are; they sustain our physical lives and are part of the very fabric of Earth’s living intelligence. We are expressions of a sentient, living planet—inseparable from the ecological consciousness of Nature.
Yet somewhere along the way we forgot this ancient kinship.
This forgetting—this deep collective amnesia—has created a painful separation between humans and the rest of the living world. From this separation have arisen the ecological and existential crises that now call us to remember who we truly are.
The Call of Our Living Earth invites you into a process of remembering…
Course Overview
Join us on a journey through six threshold experiences, each one designed to bring you into closer relationship with the living Earth and with the truth of who you are. Throughout this journey you will:

Nature Evolutionary 〰️ Co-Creative Partnership 〰️ Ancestral Memory 〰️ Keystone Species 〰️ Dynamic Reciprocity 〰️ Ceremony 〰️
Explore what it means to be a Nature Evolutionary: a human being who consciously participates in the ongoing evolution of life on Earth. Not as a manager or a steward, but as a member, participant - as kin.
1 |
Listen for the echoes of ancestral memory: the part of you that already knows how to be in relationship with the natural world, because your ancestors lived that way for millennia.
2 |
3 |
Practice dynamic reciprocity: giving back to Nature, which gives us everything, through prayer, gratitude, attention, and action. This is the living art of belonging.
Open your senses to communication: learning to tune in and receive what the living world is already offering. Through breath, heart coherence, and direct encounter with Nature, you will discover the conversation that has always been happening.
4 |
Step into your potential as a member of a Keystone Species: not the story of humans as destroyers, but the emerging story of humans as healers, regenerators, and conscious participants in the web of life.
5 |
Enter into ceremony: honoring the sacred covenant between humans and Earth, acknowledging Gaia as a living being, and reaffirming our place within the great circle of life.
6 |

Live Sessions
Module 1: Human-Nature Matrix
w/ Pam Montgomery
September 10th
The Human/Nature matrix
Sacred Trust
Healing Separation from Nature
Time: Internal vs External and the Power of Presence
Collaborators: Sacred Basil and Bear
-
We will explore the Human–Nature Matrix, the origination point of our co-creative partnership with the living Earth. This life-giving, sustaining field is ever-present, holding the possibility of deep connection and renewal. Within this matrix, the illusion of separation from Nature begins to dissolve as we step out of amnesia and into remembrance of who we truly are.
At the heart of the Human–Nature Matrix lies sacred trust—a transformative force that forms a living pact between humans and the natural world. This trust is not something we create; it is something we enter into. We approach it with reverence and respect, recognizing ourselves as members of an interconnected community of life, living in kinship with all beings.
As we enter the flow of sacred trust, we awaken to the timeless rhythm that lives within all things. Returning to our natural cadence, we rediscover our place in the great web of life. Here, in the living presence of the Human–Nature Matrix, remembrance becomes relationship, relationship becomes partnership, and partnership becomes a pathway to personal and planetary transformation.
Module 2: Self-Love as a Pathway to Nature
w/ Laura Parisi and April Thanhauser
September 17th
Self-love and nurturance as a step to loving Nature
Trusting oneself leading to trusting Nature
Collaborators: Rose and Hummingbird
-
What if loving yourself and loving the Earth were not two separate journeys, but one? When we truly nourish ourselves, we begin to feel the living pulse of Nature as the very vibration we are made of. This module invites us into deep self-nurturance as sacred ecology, where tending ourselves awakens purpose, reveals inner beauty, and transforms sovereignty into a felt, embodied knowing.
As we quiet the inner critic and welcome imagination and intuition, trusting ourselves opens the door to trusting Nature's guidance. Nourishment flows through everything: the food we eat, the songs we sing, the beings we gather with. When we receive all of this fully, we discover that loving ourselves and loving the Earth were never separate at all.
Module 3: Ancestral Memory and the Art of Reciprocity
w/ Elyshia Holliday and Mary Byron
September 24th
Ancestral Memory and connection with Nature
How the two are interwoven and vital to each other
Reciprocity, ritual, prayer or blessing, gratitude ceremony, attention and listening
Collaborators: Mugwort and Owl
-
Within each of us lives an ancient knowing, a memory of belonging to the Earth that runs deeper than our individual lifetimes. In this module we explore how ancestral memory and our relationship with Nature are inseparably woven together, and how reclaiming one nourishes the other.
At the heart of this module is reciprocity, the cornerstone of all living Earth-based cultures. Creativity, gratitude, reverence, and deep listening are among our most essential gifts to offer the web of life. Together we will practice these arts of giving back, awakening our capacity to participate once again as conscious, contributing members of the community of Earth.
Module 4: Communication, Communion, and Common Union (Part 1)
w/ Julie Caldwell
October 1st
Sensory awareness
Heart Coherence
Listening to intuition
Collaborators: Hawthorn and Deer
-
Nature is always communicating with us, and we with Nature. In this module, we’ll explore tools and techniques to expand our sensory awareness and enhance our experiences with Nature Intelligence. You’ll learn to communicate with the rocks, winds, plants, waters, critters, elemental energies, and the Earth itself to better understand the co-creative, interconnected web of Life. You’ll listen deeply to receive messages from the vastness of your bioregion, as well as from that inviting spot beneath the branches of a favorite tree. You’ll feel the space where healing, environmental awareness, sensory exploration, and an intuitive connection to the unity and story of shared life experience come together.
Module 5: Communication, Communion, and Common Union (Part 2)
w/ Pam Montgomery
October 8th
Breath
Vibratory resonance of Light & Sound
Joyful Encounter, Biophilia, and WOW moments
Collaborators: St. John’s Wort and Wild Water
-
One of Nature's most constant forms of communication is through vibratory resonance, transmitted by light and sound. These subtle vibrations form the foundation of Nature's language. As we begin to attune to the energetic world around us—alive with countless frequencies and patterns—we start to remember this universal language that has always been speaking to us.
Through our breath, we experience our most intimate relationship with the plant world. When we bring conscious awareness to the fact that every breath of oxygen we take is a gift from plants, trees, and sea vegetables, a profound truth emerges: we are not separate from Nature but participants in a sacred exchange. What was once unconscious dependence begins to blossom into conscious partnership.
We encounter the joy of Nature through moments of awe—those WOW moments when wonder opens wide. In these moments, we experience biophilia, our innate love of life and the living world. The emotional bond between humans and Nature awakens, and the illusion of separation begins to dissolve. Here, Nature is no longer something outside ourselves; it is recognized as family, as kin, and as an essential part of who we are.
Module 6: Regenerative Presence, Ritual, and the Living Earth
w/ Myra Jackson
October 15th
The Extracellular Matrix of Beholding and Belonging
Regenerative Presence and Participation
The Ritual of Now and the Living Earth
Collaborators: Lady’s Mantle, Octopus, and Gaia’s Resplendent Biosphere
-
In this culminating module, we explore the arc of return—from fragmentation to participation, from disconnection to relational coherence, from seeing ourselves apart from life to experiencing ourselves as expressions of it. Drawing upon the innate intelligence of the human body, we will explore how awareness, attention, and embodied presence can help us recognize and respond to what is life-giving, regenerative, and in service to the whole.
Together we will explore ritual and ceremony as practices that nourish and stabilize relational perception, helping us remember our place within the larger community of Earth. Through gratitude, reciprocity, imagination, and care, we begin to sense that regeneration is not only a process occurring in ecosystems, but a living process unfolding within human consciousness as well.
This session is an invitation into a larger story—one in which humanity learns to participate as a beneficial presence within the Living Earth. A story in which the restoration of rivers, forests, soils, and communities is inseparable from the restoration of belonging itself. And a story in which the resplendent vitality of life calls us not merely to witness its renewal, but to become conscious participants in it.
Guided Experiences
Each module is accompanied by a guided experience to help you embody the teachings. These are the meditations, personal ceremonies, heart coherence practices, and other experiential journeys that move the work from the online space into your direct relationship with Nature.
They're yours to download and keep, and you can take them wherever the practice calls you: into the woods, beside the water, into your garden, or even just a quiet moment at home. Return to them as many times as you’d like throughout the course or after it’s over.
Office Hours
There will be two dedicated office hour gatherings. These are open spaces to bring your questions, share what's arising, and go deeper with the material guided by the course facilitators. Each session is 60 minutes, and recordings will be available afterward if you can't join live.
Office Hour #1: Modules 1-3
Date and time TBD
Office Hour #2: Modules 4-6
Date and time TBD
Are you hearing the call?
A quiet but persistent invitation from Nature to remember our kinship and restore our role within the great web of life.
Experience
& Format
Each module is a complete arc of experience, designed to move you from understanding into embodiment. The journey carries you from shared teaching and practice into your own direct relationship with Nature, and community with others on the path.
Opening: Settling Into Sacred Space
We begin together, arriving, grounding, and opening the field before turning toward the session's theme.
Teaching: Wisdom From the Path
The facilitators share directly from their own experience and practice. The kind of teaching that comes from a life lived in relationship with the living world.
Practice: Direct Experience
The heart of each session. Depending on the module, you might find yourself in a guided meditation, practicing breathwork, exploring heart coherence, sitting in stillness with a plant, or opening your senses to the vibratory resonance of Nature all around you. These moments are invitations into direct experience.
Nature Allies: The More-Than-Human Teachers
The plant and animal beings who have long served as guides and companions on this path are present here too, woven into each module as teachers in their own right.
Closing: Grounding and Integration
We close each session with intention, carrying what arose back into our daily lives.
Guided Experiences and Bonus Material
After each session, the journey continues in your own time. Download the module's guided experience and take it wherever the practice calls you — into the woods, beside the water, into your garden. Along the way, you'll also receive bonus material that deepens and extends each theme.
Connecting with Community
Between sessions, connect with your fellow participants in our Mighty Networks community, a gathering place where the conversation, questions, and shared discoveries become co-creative.

Are YOU BEing called forward?
The sense that something much greater than you is present, listening, alive. That you belong to a world far larger and older and more alive than the one you were taught to see. That you’re not a visitor to this Earth but an expression of her. That she — along with all of your Nature Kin — has never stopped reaching for you.
You may have felt it while walking in the woods, kneeling in a garden, standing at the edge of water.
The Call of Our Living Earth is for anyone who has felt the ache of separation from Nature…
and knows that coming back into relationship with the Living World is one of the most important things a human being can do right now. For anyone ready to remember that we are not here to manage the Earth, observe her, or even protect her from a distance. We are her, and she is calling us home.
No prior experience with ecology or Nature-based practices is necessary.
Just a willingness to show up, with an open heart, a curious mind, and a will to begin living an embodied relationship with Nature.
Beginning September 10th, 2026
Join us on this journey of remembrance, relationship, and renewal. A return to our rightful place within the living community of Earth and all her beings.
