10 | You Are Nature

Modern life makes it easy to feel separate — from nature, from seasons, from our own internal rhythms.In this episode, I explore our connection to nature not as a romantic idea, but as something biological, emotional, and deeply regulating for the nervous system.I share reflections on how modern environments can disconnect us from natural cycles — and what begins to shift when we consciously return to them.We speak about the five elements in traditional Chinese medicine and how they mirror organs, emotions, and seasonal movement. About the Schumann resonance and why our brain states are not isolated from the Earth’s electromagnetic field. And about something much simpler: walking barefoot, touching trees, noticing light, and allowing your body to recalibrate.This episode is not about escaping modern life.It’s about remembering that you are not separate from the Earth you stand on.I also share practical and gentle ways to reconnect — especially if you live in a city — and why nervous system regulation is often less about doing more, and more about aligning with what is already natural.Because nature is not something you visit.It’s something you are.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Our Connection with Nature07:36 The Five Elements and Emotional Cycles13:23 Nature and the Nervous System18:42 Brain Waves and Earth Rhythms25:45 Simple Ways to Reconnect in Daily Life30:48 Living in Alignment with Natural CyclesConnect with meIf you want to share thoughts, questions, or wishes for future episodes — or if you feel called to connect or work with me — you can reach me here:Instagram: @annehochwaldWebsite: annehochwald.comI also share more personal insights and occasional special offers in my Telegram group, created as a safe space — only when there’s something meaningful to share:Telegram: HOME FREQUENCY
