There is a Wilderness in Me

As I near the completion of my five day meander around Mull I've recorded a short video message for you, and concluded with a short Poetic Pause. Enjoy... and do feel free to share your thoughts on the past few days of deep nature connection.

  • What a wonderful 5 days on Mull you have shared with us all, emails, photos, videos and prose, truly magical. Love this poem about the wilderness. Wow. Safe travels back to Lancashire.

  • Thank you, thank you Jason for this last week it’s been brilliant for me, to see the present moments on your trip, to see the lovely landscapes, your video recording, photos and meditations and poems. It has worked great and has been such a treat thank you, I will look forward to anymore you do in the future. Safe travels home tomorrow 🙏

    • Thank you so much Lyndsey, I have plans that will enable me to do much more regular nature sharings and in depth adventures like this. More to come… 🙂

  • Thank you, Jason. It has been a privilege to join you on your journey and to share your joy in the land. Inspirational. And, for me, just the right amount of contact to touch base with you and see what you are seeing on your meanderings.

  • Thank you so much Jason, so enjoyed everything you have shared. Mull is very dear to my heart and love escaping there from this troubled World.

  • Thank you so much for sharing your Mull adventure with us Jason. it’s been a joy, and actually I really enjoyed finding an email twice a day from you. It was sharing it real time and I felt almost there with you…as a friend or family member checks in regularly to update! So thank you for taking the time to do that.
    Loved the meditations, films, amazing photos and tonight’s Wilderness poem…so enjoyed and felt benefit and connection with it all.
    Safe journey home… and haste ye back! 🪶

    • Thank you for your thoughts here Lynne, it’s helpful to hear. I’ll be back on Mull before too long. I have Seal pups to see and a Red Deer rut to hear. 🙂

  • Jason thank you so much for sharing your journey to Mull. There is such a light and clarity to your work as you bring the absolute radiance of The Natural World to people’s awareness. Personally I feel as if I have shifted to another dimension, the hazy filter of day to day, peeled away, to reveal heaven on earth!🌳

    • I really appreciate your kind words here Stella. Thank you so much. Bringing nature home to an appreciative community is my lifelong mission and this 5 day adventure has helped me see ever better ways to do this. Thank you for following along.

  • I’ve really enjoyed sharing your experience of Mull, the observations, the videos and photos (the tiny sundews in particular). Thank you for taking us along with you.

  • I’ve looked forward to your emails and delighted in your musings, poetry and photographs. Mull is an amazing place, dramatic and unexpected! Thank you from my heart for sharing!

  • Thank you for inviting me to your trip. I have been excitedly waiting for your emails to come through to see what you have found on your travels. It feels as though I’ve been on an adventure too!
    I love the landscape shots of Mull as they are akin to where I live Ireland. I was really happy to see the sundew shots. I’ve only ever seen them in real life once and that was on Brownsea island, so that brought back some happy memories.
    Maybe you could take us on your fact finding and foraging trips when you look for things so we can see them in ‘real life’s.
    I’ve really enjoyed the whole experience so thank you again for sharing.

    • You are most welcome Sue, I’m taken aback by the many beautiful reactions to this venture and will take this forwards as I ponder on what’s next. Thank you for your kind and encouraging comment.

  • Thank you again Jason for all your meanderings from Mull.

    As I listen & watch your connections with beautiful Mother Earth, Father Sky & all nature I feel my heart is in yours
    with the beauty & inspiration that you feel 😊🌎

  • Thank you, Jason for these past 5 days. The beauty of Mull is something else.
    Finishing off with the reading of Wilderness sums everything up wonderfully.
    Safe journey home and thank you again 🙏

  • Thank you for taking me on your trip to Mull although I live in Scotland I’m sad to say I’ve never been to Mull Your videos are beautiful and have awaken something in me

  • Jason I’ve loved this episode, and especially the boyish excitement in your presentation. Such energy, such joy! You are a grand advocate for the Earth, and your reading of the poem ‘There is a Wolf in me’ is a delight. Thank you for this, from the Wolf, Fox, Hog, Fish, Baboon, Eagle, Mockingbird, Pal, in me…

  • Thanks for getting the word out there Jason. As a suggestion, restricting to one post a day works better for me. I like the idea of a summary at the end. What amazes me is that you were able to do it all in the time!

    • Thank you John and I will take on board your comment. I know many found two emails a day enabled them to feel they were alongside me so perhaps I need to offer the choice of multiple daily emails or a single end of day summary should I do any more deep dives of this kind. I quite surprised myself by how I was able to keep my focus and flow at the same time as creating videos, galleries, posts and emails!
