Janet Weisberg – Project NatureConnect (PNC) Weisberg personally helps individuals reestablish their innate sensory connec- tion with the Earth via PNC’s interactive activities, which encourage participants to recognize and awaken from their sensory slumber to reclaim their birth- right of 53-plus natural senses. After PNC experiences, individuals stop living life in their head and move into experienc- ing life through their bodily senses, many of which they notice for the first time through experiential, nonverbal exercises.
