Here at Nature Philosophy, we have a deep love and respect for indigenous culture!

We have spent over 15 years learning survival skills and global principles of Nature Connection directly from our adopted Australian Aboriginal Yolngu family in North-East Arnhem land, NT. We believe survival skills courses are only complete when woven together with local indigenous wisdom.

We honour and deeply respect the rich cultural history of Australia’s traditional custodians.

So, at NATURE ONE we are very fortunate to have local Yaegl Elders join us to share stories about the local culture. This is often an emotional and insightful journey of reconnection to the land we call Australia.

If you are feeling the call to join us we can guarantee Nature ONE will be an epic upleveling of your readiness to live life as a modern earth-connected human.
