Living Connection 1st Village
Connect with People who Connect with Nature
The Living Connection 1st Village is our core offering, bringing people together in connection with nature.
As an online membership, we embark on the Natural Mind Journey, exploring the wonders of nature together, supported by weekly audio recorded insights and inspirations, and Live Online Gatherings 4 times a month to share our experiences as a village.
The Living Connection 1st Village is also home to the Natural Mind Initiation Path (the updated version of the Kamana Naturalist Training Program starting in March 2025) and the Natural Mind Facilitator Path (Coming very soon!).
Wherever you are on your journey, we welcome you to join us in building a Nature-Centric Community nested in Connective Culture!
