What is Nature 120?
We are a group of educators and therapists who believe that children and adults thrive when they eat properly, breathe well, sleep soundly and engage nature in unstructured, open-ended, playful ways. We have been profoundly moved by our experiences with children from different racial, cultural, socio-economic and neurological backgrounds. There is a growing body of research that supports what we have seen. When we open up opportunities for children to play without imposed structure in a natural setting, and we mindfully insert minimal, simple exercises to sharpen awareness around eating and breathing, we see them effortlessly soften, heal, connect, learn and grow. It’s breathtaking to witness.
