Do you remember feeling wonder and awe as a child? Everything was new and fascinating, especially in nature?

Perhaps you were mesmerized by the glow of fireflies or the wiggle of earthworms. Chances are your toes and fingers couldn’t resist the mud and anything that floated or flitted would cast you into a grand game of chase.

That was your birthright then, and it still is.

Returning to a sense of wonder doesn’t mean we don’t grow up, it means we keep our spark.

This is not only what we tap into with Unearthing Experiences—it’s at the very heart of our work.

Opening to wonder keeps us from losing patience and burning out. It helps us do the hard work of adulting and still genuinely smile—crow’s feet and all—at the end of the day.

But most importantly, returning to a sense of wonder reawakens our aliveness.

Why do we feel so good in nature, even if it’s just a few plants in our office? It’s because we are nature, and our bodies and psyches immediately recognize when we’re home.

Welcome home.
