Animals and plants are in constant communication with the world around them. To join the conversation, we need only to connect with our primal mind and recognise that we, too, are Nature. Once in this state, we can communicate with animals as effortlessly as talking with friends. The songs of birds and the calls of animals start to make sense.
For our ancestors, collective intelligence was a normal part of life. We see it today as the mysterious force that enables flocks of birds, swarms of bees, and schools of fish to function together in perfect synchrony, communicating and cooperating at some undetectable level.
Our ancient ancestors understood the language of nature, enabling them to communicate innately with plants. By quieting the mind through meditation, we too can tap into the vibratory resonance of plants and receive their wisdom and healing.

There was a time when our ways were intimately woven with the pulse of the natural world. The answers to life's great questions were found not in books but in quiet communion with the voices of Mother Earth. From the mighty whale to the tiny bee, each animal and element was seen as sacred and was honoured for the gift it brought to the greater circle of life.
