How to Align with your Body + Nature w— Alyssa Benjamin

“Every place and person has a belonging to it.”

Back-to-nature guide Alyssa Benjamin tells us how re-aligning with our bodies is re-aligning with nature, the value of winter seasons of life, + what she’s learned from a healing journey with her digestion.

Alyssa Benjamin is a writer, intuitive coach, back to nature guide and founder of the Our Nature Studio, which explores the methods, systems and practices that bring us into harmony and alignment with the natural world. On behalf of Our Nature, she hosts workshops, retreats, courses and a podcast where she speaks with experts from a variety of fields about how reconnecting to the nature around us helps us reconnect to the nature within us.


we discuss

  • How we can relate more holistically to the idea of Winter — both in nature and in the inner seasons of life

  • Digestion difficulties — all the ways our life and our body is digesting the world around us

  • Alyssa’s personal healing journey around digestion and what it has taught her about relating to the world, to her body, and her food

  • The importance of finding JOY in our food and what we take in. Joy is an essential ingredient.

  • How nature’s definition of well-being may differ from our contemporary, societal definition
