Hey Faith, ever wondered how a simple walk through a local forest could become a community healing space? I’ve been thinking about turning nature trails into little support circles—what do you think?
Faith
That sounds like a beautiful idea. Imagine people sharing stories under the trees, feeling the ground beneath them connect them all. A walk can be more than just a stroll—it can be a place where hearts meet, worries soften, and we remind each other that we’re not alone. I love the thought of turning a forest trail into a gentle, healing circle. You’ve got my support and a few ideas if you need them.

I love that vision—nature’s quiet corners are the perfect stage for that kind of sharing. Maybe we can start with a small clearing, light some sage smudges, and let stories flow like a stream. I’ll map out the route and keep an eye on the wildlife so we’re all safe. Let’s grab a notebook, some tea, and let the trees be our listeners. What’s your first idea for the circle?
Faith
I think the first thing we could do is start with a simple welcome ritual—maybe a short circle of gratitude where each person says one thing they’re thankful for right now. Then we can invite anyone who wants to share to do so, while we keep the sage smoke gently drifting. A calm, respectful pace will help everyone feel safe to open up. And maybe we can set a gentle “listen only” rule so that we all hear each other fully. That way the forest really becomes a listening friend for everyone.

That’s exactly what I was picturing—warm, quiet, a little magic in the air. A gratitude circle feels like a gentle anchor, and the sage smoke is just the right touch. I can imagine the wind carrying everyone’s voices and the trees holding them. Let’s sketch out a quick layout, pick a spot with good shade, and we’ll be ready to welcome the first wave of storytellers. How do you want to spread the invitation? Are we reaching out locally or online?
