Mirror Neurons & Modeling Deep Nature Connection

Download Episode mp3

ReWilding Conversations Episode 12:

Did you know there’s a part of the human brain that’s designed to mimic and internalize the behaviors, attitudes and emotions of other people around us?

It’s these special type of neurons called “Mirror Neurons”.

And you can activate these neurons in yourself and your students to learn faster, teach deeper and transform in amazing ways.

Here’s how it works…

If you want to develop awareness in your students, you simply need to model what deep awareness looks like.

If you want to teach about plants and trees, you need to model a relationship with plants & trees that inspires your students to do the same.
​
If you want to encourage curiosity and creativity, you need to show them what curiosity & creativity actually looks like!

The truth is that 99% of the world’s population have nobody in their social circles who honestly demonstrates the behaviors & characteristics of deep nature connection.

This is why Gandhi said, “Be the change that you want to see in the world.”

And that’s the topic of today’s ReWilding Conversations Podcast.

This episode is packed with tips, stories and nuggets of wisdom for growing your influence and making a bigger difference in your community.
