Encountering Trees
Emergence Magazine invites you to connect with the living world through simple acts of attention. This practice is designed to open the senses to something beyond yourself.
Since the very beginning, we have been intimately linked with trees, sharing breath within Earth’s great respiration of carbon and oxygen. And while we often reduce trees to ornaments within our landscapes and consume them as expendable resources, they constantly invite us—through bloom, shade, wonder, breath—into closer relationship. In this practice, you are encouraged to respond to such gifts with a renewed quality of attention and acknowledge the threads that bind you and the tree together within a shared biosphere.
