Hardin shares a home and purpose with his daughter Rhiannon and partners Kiva Rose and Loba. He lives and works out of a small powered cabin seven river crossings from the nearest pavement, overlooking the river that runs through their enchanted Anima Sanctuary, a botanical and wildlife refuge he has devoted decades to protecting and restoring. In 1979 he coined the term “ReWilding”, which he applies to both the restoration of threatened natural ecosystems and our embrace of our own wild, sentient, authentic, “response-able” natures. The Anima approach to healing is deeply rooted in nature and place, emphasizing the healing of not only ours and others’ ailments, but of our spirits, society, and planet as well.
