Sit Spot Practice
Each person chooses one spot in nature and returns to it again and again — sitting quietly, observing what lives and changes there through weathers and seasons, journalling afterwards, occasionally sharing discoveries with the group. The classic nature-connection practice: relationship with one place, built by repetition.
