However, this construct has also been critiqued and proponents charged with harboring an ambivalence that paradoxically reinforces a sense of separation from \u201cnature\u201d. We respond to one critique by demonstrating that whilst problematizing aspects of \u201cconnectedness with nature\u201d has merit, selective use of examples misconstrues efforts in this field, undermines common ground and conflates theoretical conceptualizations with practical implementation. In addressing problems of perception and praxis, we emphasize the primacy of direct experience in shaping ways of knowing and recommend integral ecology (based on Wilber\u2019s integral theory) as an inclusive framework for attending to multiple perspectives on the human-nature relationship.<\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-95065\" data-postid=\"95065\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-95065 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The concept of \u201cconnectedness with nature\u201d is increasingly used in environmental and sustainability discourse.
