First Nature 27 - The Forest's Meditative Gift with Shawn Berry

"Imagine if you could experience the internal experience of fulfillment and success while doing NOTHING surrounded by nature" Host Shawn Berry guides us through the intricacies of how our intellectual mind works and relates to our natural environment.
