Program Description: Catriona MacGregor understands how easy it is to become exhausted by your schedule, your to-do list, and the gazillion emails in your inbox-and it's also easy to forget there's a world of renewal just outside your door, and a host of plants and animals available to help you find your way back to your peace, your joy, your roots. Indeed, she says, the planet itself resonates with your most peaceful nature, and regaining a connection with the natural world is the surest way to rediscover the truest part of yourself. She explains, "One of the things we miss out on in our culture is being reborn with the new season. It's a very forgiving time, a time of redemption. There are new buds on the leaves and there are new fawns being born, and we also are renewed, because every cell in our body is remade anew. When you live in that kind of a universe, where every year you can be renewed, it's just a place of forgiving. Embracing these kind of cycles is a great way for us to continue into our future, into our lives." (Hosted by Michael Toms)
