REWILDING
Usually used to describe placement of a wild species back into their natural environment, rewilding here is meant for humans. We spend 93% of life indoors and an average of 8+ hours a day on a device. We have been striped from our natural habitat and live an artificial, domesticated life. Rewilding is a return home, a process that reconnects you with the natural world.
