Monica Jones - Founder
I am a homeschool mom of a curious 9 year old son. I have seen how, when connected to nature, he thrives and feeds his curiosity with flow and enthusiasm.
In 2021 we explored Fibonacci and the Golden Ratio. This struck me at a personal level, could it be that indeed we all are connected by the same force?
Is there a homeschool program that can link bonds between humans and nature while also providing a learning experience? In the absence of it, Aligned with Nature was created.
My vision is to contribute to the creation of a new education system, in which the child is the leader and the learner. Where the learning is not interrupted by a bell or any scheduled activity. Where there is a stronger foundation than bias-driven, politically-charged institutional learning.
Our children are the leaders of the future. Leaders who respect, honor, care for and connect with nature. Leaders who are in-tune with themselves so they can navigate the waters of life, and business, with ease.
I have been a yoga/meditation instructor for over 15 years. Every morning I love to connect with the nature world to understand its wisdom and life itself.
As a homeschool mom, I have read countless of books and felt in love with the Waldorf philosophy. There were two books that shaped me into how I live our homeschool life; How Children Learn by John Holt and Dumbing Us Down by John Taylor Gatto.
