Having been introduced to wilderness philosophy and survival skills at 12 years old, a passion for nature was ignited. With deep nature connection and mentoring being an ongoing thread throughout her teens, Victoria was lucky enough to do a variety of immersion trainings both in the UK and the USA. “Through ancient scout experiences as a teenager, I was able to expand into my less dominant senses with extended blindfold drumstalks of over an hour moving towards the sound, feel into the edges of my awareness through stealth movement missions and become aware of how I could connect to source through a variety of practices including sweat lodges, sense meditations and the simple yet profound ‘sit spot’.” In her early 20s she founded Cultivating Curiosity and developed long term nature connection mentoring programmes for both children and adults in Sussex. A few areas of particular interest are: the power of gratitude; natural fire lighting and conscious fire tending; and the role of questions and stories in pedagogy.  Thank You for Listening!I am so grateful to you for tuning into this episode of Connection Matters Podcast.
