How wonderful would it be - as in Ancient Times - for Nature to be revered and respected by Humans; elevated once more to Divine; no longer commodified? As a Forest Therapy Guide I hope to see participants taking pause in Nature, finding authentic connection to their own bodies, and to the More Than Human World beyond. I hold a vision where - as more people find the time and space to reconnect in this way - reciprocal relationships between humans and Nature multiply and strengthen. This will open doors to healing - not only for Humans, but also for the Earth and all she embodies, supports and sustains. FOREST THERAPY WALKS Join me for a walk in Nature. I'll guide you to consciously connect with what’s around you by awakening your senses and encouraging you to take in Nature at a much slower pace than you're accustomed to. A Forest Therapy Walk is not a fitness hike, not a naturalist-led point-and-name tour, and not psychotherapy in a natural setting. It's as simple as walking in a natural environment and consciously connecting with what’s around you. I'll guide you through a series of invitations that aim to awaken your senses, encourage you to take in Nature at a much slower pace than you're probably accustomed to, and enliven a more conscious connection with the inherent healing properties of Nature. This practice is not the same as Japanese Forest Bathing, though it is inspired by this. Nature/Forest Therapy Walks have been scientifically proven to boost immunity, lower stress, and help your brain to work better. Over and above these physiological benefits, this practice also helps us to cultivate our connection to Nature.
