@SwailesRuth A Professor Barry Bogin has done research on this area of height and the association with wellbeing and toxic stress. Very thought provoking.
@SirajIram@Mr_PaintPots It’s heartbreaking how this is being used… we are in the relationship building business where thinking is part of an exploring and being curious. Human development. Connection. Growth.
@jimknight99 I’m thinking a lot about flexibility and rigidity. Rigidity seems based in fear and can be stifling. Flexibility is creative and responsive and comes from a place of safety and security. If consistency becomes rigidity, then I think it’s unhelpful… nuanced discussion!

Part of the way I build trust with the alpaca herd is to play - it’s meant that nervous alpacas like Amber here are getting brave! #play#safety#connection

@connectionwork1@MbuNottingham Honestly, I can't have imagined anything more perfect, thank you so much for making it such a great experience. Those flapjacks, shoetbread... Ooooo to die for ❤️
I’ve been a little quiet over the past few months - this space has been taking up more of my time. There is something magical about being outdoors and working with alpacas… all about connection, of course!
