Cultivating Terraphilia with Susan J Tweit

Reconnecting us with nature and our home planet for grounding, hope, inspiration and healing. Plants are my people, writing is my jam.

In an inbox filled with great newsletters, Practicing Terraphilia is one of my must-reads. Susan's reflections always resonate with me and often stay with me long after I've read it.

A Wilder Wonder

By Jes Raymond

How To Practice. Music, Words, Art and Movement. There are many Portals. It's All One Wonder.

If WAGO had an artist-in-residence, it might be Jes. In A Wilder Wonder, she explores the creative life as a kind of aliveness practice, with equal parts heart and honesty. You don’t need to be a musician or visual artist to feel at home; just bring your curiosity and a willingness to lean into your creativity.
