If you cannot find a group, the Holy Nature Paula organization (unofficial) suggests starting a "Thicket Circle": meet with two other people in a wild place, read one of Paula’s poems aloud, and sit in silence for one hour. Do not speak except to share what you smelled during the silence.

Authors like Paula Huston have explored these themes through the lens of monastic traditions, advocating for a "holy way" that prioritizes silence, solitude, and the beauty of creation to find peace in a complex world. Paula Begoun: Truth and Natural Integrity

: Allende weaves a narrative that treats the history of her family and the Chilean landscape as something sacred and mystical.

She lived without fire or bread. In winter, she slept in the belly of a fallen oak. In spring, her tears, shed for dying saplings, were collected by finches as medicine for blighted crops. When a drought struck seven villages, the people came to cut her sacred grove for firewood. She did not argue. Instead, she lay down at the tree line and let morning glory vines grow over her mouth. The villagers, ashamed by her utter non-resistance, left their axes in the dirt. That night, it rained for the first time in nine months.

Ecologists, rewilding projects, cemeteries, abandoned lots, the terminally ill (who, like autumn leaves, are learning to let go), and anyone who has ever felt guilty for loving a spider.

Perhaps Paula’s most controversial teaching is the "Atonement of the Footprint." She argued that every time we walk on pavement or manicured lawns, we create a "spiritual abscess." Practitioners of Holy Nature Paula commit to walking barefoot on raw earth (dirt, moss, sand) for at least 10 minutes daily. This creates a physical-electric connection (grounding) which Paula described as "the nervous system of the Holy Spirit."
