The Problem of ‘Being Indoors’

Our mind and body is not designed to be wired up to technology from concrete boxes for a significant proportion of our day. This typically results in our system ‘overheating’ or ‘burning out.’ Finding ways to develop and integrate a deeper connection with nature offers a cooling effect. It restores us to a more natural way of living. Being outdoors is supportive for our nervous system and can help us heal in a more natural way. Healing in nature brings us clarity and helps us find resolution.

Discover the Beauty of Nature Therapy

I use the gifts of nature – the seasons, the elements, the beautiful imperfections to enhance healing techniques. Through Shamanic work, I weave the use of the native American medicine wheel to delve deeper into our psyche. Together we can navigate the healing path.

Using the medicine wheel also allows for exploration into aspects of our life where we may still be stuck or perhaps still processing a trauma/loss or adjustment.

Natural environments offer us opportunity to pause and slow down and become more grounded and mindful. We can then move around our lives with intention and purpose. Working outdoors offers a unique experience in which a client can benefit from greater openness and stillness, as well as gentle movement to work through and overcome emotional and physical states of stress/distress.

Nature provides us with a canvas in which to be creative using metaphor and observation of how nature is in a constant state of change and renewal – just like us!

Let’s Talk

If you’re interested in working outdoors with me, we meet initially ‘indoors’ to discuss the details of this and contracting how we manage situations that can arise outside of a clinic room. This is all to ensure that you feel safe and supported in this work.
