Imagine having the skills of a native scout. The most heightened of awareness and the most intimate knowledge of the land. This was needed for survival.
Though it’s very difficult for us in this modern world to attain the skills a scout had, we can certainly enrich our lives by learning techniques to help us become more fully present and aware. These skills are vital if one wants to have a deeper connection with nature.
In this section we will feature many awareness skills, some of which are covered deeply in the Kamana Naturalist Training Program.
Hazards in nature are important to cover here as well. The hazards in nature keep us aware and on our toes.
For some of you, the hazards in nature may be bears and cougars, for others it might be poison ivy or Lymes disease. Sensory awareness and knowledge of place go hand and hand. Even in our day and age, they are needed for survival.
