There was a time when humans were content with living in harmony with nature, our struggles were elemental and intricately connected to our survival.
We could not count the stars in the sky or the leaves on the tree, yet we understood the way they moved in relation to us and the natural world around us. Our connection to the natural world was essential, and multi-faceted, we understood the connection between flowers and migration and the cycles in the sky country.
Every living thing is connected, and in Aboriginal culture related through totemic and kinship connections.
Now, in a time of unprecedented luxury and abundance, humanity faces a tidal wave of mental unwellness. Humans have unravelled the mysteries, counted all the leaves and stars and named ourselves masters over the natural world.
