In nature, as nature
Explore how you relate to yourself, others and the More-Than-Human world by joining me for a Forest Bath - in person or virtual.
Forest Therapy Walk
Through a guided experience, either in person or virtually, you will be invited to join in relationship with the Land you are with. There are many, many health human benefits of spending time in nature, and the invitation is to join in a practice that supports remembering and rediscovering our intimate relationship with nature, as nature.
This is not a hike or a naturalist experience (though I do love those experiences too!). During 2.5 - 3 hours together, we will probably walk less than 1.5 kilometres. You will be fully encouraged to follow your body’s wisdom while we explore partnership with the Land and the present moment. As the lineage I am trained in (Association of Nature and Forest Therapy) says - “the forest is the therapist, the guide opens the doors”.
I’d be honoured to be your guide - join me!

“In a high-paced world that progressively takes us out and away from nature - this is a great, accessible practice to return to something beautiful that lives within the core of us all”
Forest Therapy Participant
“Time in nature is always well spent. Time with a forest guide to provide purposeful engagement and reflection, self awareness and awareness of the rich world around you. This experience is truly helpful to our health and well-being. Amy did a wonderful job facilitating a connection to nature that is both personally renewing and promotes appreciation that we are part of the natural world”
