30-Day Sit Spot Challenge from Ozark Tracker Society

Imagine people all over the world going to their outdoor "Sit Spots"
every day for 30 days!

Why would they do this, and what's a "Sit Spot" anyway?

As the students in our Kamana Naturalist Training Program already
know, regularly going to the same spot, even for just a few minutes at
a time, is a powerful way to learn about nature.

And as Jon Young says, whether you want to become a naturalist,
tracker, bird language or wild plant expert, "Find one place you can
get to know really, really well."

However, this time of year it can be really challenging for even the
most commited student of nature to keep going to their sit spot.

That's where the 30-Day Sit Spot Challenge from Feb. 15th - March 15th
comes in!

I decided to coordinate this event because sometimes we can forget
what is important, and having other people share in our challenging
experiences is really supportive.

For example, just knowing that lots of other folks are accepting the
challenge helps holds me to the things I want in life, like
cultivating quietness and becoming closer to the natural world right
in my own place.

Please join me and many others in accepting the 30-Day Sit Spot
Challenge. Read about the challenge and how to join:

Just think how powerfully and joyfully you'll be greeting the coming
Spring, after having spent the last month of winter outside every day,
watching the natural world awaken from winter slumber?

In gratitude,

Kat Koch,
Youth Programs Instructor, Kamana 2 Responder, and Product Sales Manager

p.s. Though the event officially begins Feb. 15th, if you're late in
finding out about the Challenge and getting started, that's OK, just
make up the time to yourself after March 15th.

And if you're traveling during part of this period, that's alright
also, just find someplace outside to sit each day. The point of this
is to spend the time connecting with nature and support others in
doing so.
