What does it mean to be connected with nature? [Spirituality & Religion]

I want to feel the earth and have it tell me its thoughts. I want the wind to bring me to a place of peace. Is this some form of spirituality?

Yes, it is a form of spirituality. People that have a connection with nature tend to be healthier than those who do not. There is a reason why mystics throughout history have tended to gravitate toward natural places--the desert, mountaintops, forests, etc. Many Native American tribes used spirit quests in nature to help center and guide them.
