Episode 25 Kate Brelje Interviews Sarah Gabriel

Today, Kate speaks with Sarah Gabriel, a spiritual ecologist and experience designer. Sarah creates projects and practices that widen our eco-literacy and deepen our connections in nature by reminding us that humans are not at the center. Using a bedtime story about the Dandelion from her Audio Library project, Sarah invites us to think more critically about "anthropomorphizing" – how we use human language – in our attempts to connect more intimately with plants and other beings.If you are interested in Sarah's work, you can find more information on her website: academyofnaturalrhythms.org. You can find the Dandelion Fritter recipe she shared here and the Other Awareness exploration of umwelt here. If you are interested in connecting with Networking with Plants in the Anthropocene, please visit our website networkingwithplants.org or email us at networkingwithplants@gmail.com . The music piece is kindly offered to us by artist Mileece. You can find her work at: www.mileece.is Special thanks to steering committee member Joe Culhane for creating the podcast image.
