Psychologist Howard Gardner defines another type of intelligence that he calls Naturalist Intelligence. Naturalist intelligence is associated with a strong affinity to the natural world. They enjoy learning, exploring, and spending time in nature, and they have a strong concern for other living things. Naturalist intelligence, like any other type of intelligence, is a cognitive talent that may be developed over time. Consider your relationship with nature to be similar to that of a close friend. You strengthen that link by spending time together, finding common ground, and exposing deeper vulnerabilities. It may feel awkward or uncomfortable to form the same connection with nature, but regular excursions into nature, such as walks, hikes, and other outdoor activities, can create deeper, emotional attachments and deepen your understanding of the natural world. Naturalist intelligence may make you more ecologically conscious, but it also has an impact on memory, creativity, and problem-solving abilities. Walking through a forest or going up a mountain may not appear to be intellectual hobbies, but the truth is that your relationship with nature typically reflects your overall intelligence.
