I offer coaching sessions in nature at quiet parks, green spaces and gardens. I encourage clients to connect to the natural world, listening to the stillness with alertness while looking around and noticing other people and sounds without the use of labels. To be fully present and experience the sacredness of nature reduces conceptual thinking while in its presence. In this space, clients connect with themselves in a powerful way. While aligned, we can explore what’s present, what is wanting to emerge and how nature can inspire us to meet challenges and goals in new ways. Incorporating a nature-based poem can also deepen the session.
Connecting with nature nourishes the soul! Actively listening to the stillness yet noticing the subtle sounds while simultaneously letting go of distractions allows us to meet ourselves (and nature) in an expanded way. Past and future fall away. We begin to slow down and experience our interrelationship with nature. We compassionately notice how nature is impacted by its surroundings and discover that love for nature is a two-way street.
"Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty". Albert Einstein.
