Book Club: Williams

Picture
A few years ago, as the dream for this company was taking shape and I was recovering from a serious illness, I reached for this book. Florence Williams shares some of the physiological benefits of spending time outside. Her chapters travel around the world, sharing different perspectives that she witnessed firsthand. Her words became foundational to our team as we became emboldened to get audiences outside for our plays--however that may look in the different communities we engage. 

Williams says it best, but if you are facing stress, get outside! It will lower your cortisol levels. It will fuel your work. It will remind you just how extraordinary this planet is that we get to call home. 

Are you reading our book club suggestions and interested in continuing the dialogue? Get in touch with gail@thekaleidoscapes.org! And stay tuned for an upcoming project about The Kaleidoscapes’ interpretation of traces during the pandemic.
