 Emma Blas and I are in week five of a very tight lockdown in Spain, but our situations are extremely different. Emma is stuck in a small flat, I am walking free on a big mountain. In this episode, we compare our different realities and perspectives through Emma’s poem Still, discussing the doors that open through limitation, the grief cycle, the place nature occupies in our psyches, and what exactly can be a balm to our souls in these strangest of times.

Thank you, both of you, for doing this. It makes me peaceful and reminds me where I belong. Strangely enough, in your first podcast before this corona lockdown, you mentioned how people are worried about climate change and destruction it brings to nature and you both agreed that nature will adapt and survive no matter what, it is us, people and our existence, we need to worry about...and it is happening, sadly with many victims.

Ah thanks for this feedback Daniela. Yes, I always had a feeling the planet would sort it way before we did. We were too addicted to madness to change.
