“People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth.” - Thich Nhat Hanh

Most of us feel better when we have spent time in the great outdoors. The natural world constantly supports and informs my practice as well as my own health; this is why I feel the best place to receive therapy is outdoors, in communion with all the other beings, plants and animals, who are ready to show us natural ways to find peace and healing.

At Wild Wellbeing we support our clients to engage in the natural world in holistic, meaningful and healing ways using proven and carefully crafted models of practice.

Walking & Talking Therapy

Walking and talking therapy brings all the benefits of a normal therapy session with the added advantage of being out in nature. We carefully select local natural spaces which offer peace and quiet as well as the beauty of the natural world.

Ecotherapy

Like with walking talking therapy, ecotherapy clients will gain many benefits from being in nature, however the focus will be to support them to connect with the natural environment in a deeper and more meaningful way. Exactly how the session will unfold will depend on the individual but it may include; meditation exercises which help to ground and connect; focusing on a particular tree or animal; making something creative using natural found materials. Clients may also be encouraged to explore their environment to find meaning and mirroring from Nature. This supports greater insights into personal experiences, feelings or issues related to relationships or certain situations.

Group Workshops

Our Nature Connection workshops provide groups with a fulfilling and healing experience which benefits individuals, communities and the natural world. Each workshop uses the NatureWell Approach which supports the group to engage with nature through the Five Pathways of Connection, Beauty, Emotion, Compassion & Meaning.

Weekend workshops are available for community groups, work place groups or groups referred by health care providers. Please get in touch for more information about how our workshops can be tailored to groups needs.

Workshops for the general public will be held periodically throughout the year.
