Field Journal - Notes on Noticing
Mindful Walking, Nature Connection & Inner Reflections
On a journey from our heartlands to our wild edges, and back again.
Welcome to our Field Journal, where we explore the relationship between the natural world and our inner landscapes. Enjoy a variety of topics, from mindful walking, seasonal changes, and nature connection, to foraged finds, awe-inspiring coastal paths, favourite walking routes, and seasonal recipes.
Whether you’re drawn to solo walking, wild swimming, or simply slowing down to notice, this journal invites you to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself and the world around you.

What Does Pilgrimage Mean To You?
What does Pilgrimage mean to you?
Does the idea feel heavy or light? Is it something you want to move towards or away from?
For some, pilgrimage has religious connotations and associations with long, arduous and perilous journeys.
For me, it’s lighter and more spacious than that. Pilgrimage is something that belongs to everyone. It’s a call to explore. An invitation to set off on a road in which our physical and spiritual paths may cross. A meeting of our heartlands and wild edges.
