This task requires many different skills, experience, knowledge, awareness, consciousness and learning about how the natural world can support our growth as individuals and communities and how we can support the natural world in turn. Our focus is on working with people in the outdoor green and wild spaces. Through our courses we bring about greater personal awareness of our potential as a human beings and how we can access the natural world to support us in being this. We integrate our theraputic approach with complementary outdoor pursuits such as rock climbing and mountain climbing, with woodland working and wilderness expeditions and retreats as a way of accessing ourselves and our relationship to nature. We run half day, whole day, weekend and week long courses in the South Wales, Eire and South West of England Using nature to help with health and well being has also been researched recently by Mind the mental health charity. Click on link for report. http://www.humannaturetherapy.com/userimages/mindreport.pdf Our experience is that the natural world offers us a gateway into being which when accessed brings forth an abundance of opportunities and possibilities for being fully ourselves. Once we begin to be fully ourselves we can begin to offer our deepest human gifts to our families, communities and the world at large. Our intention is to find best practice in how to live fully in the world with ease, lightness and consciousness. Giving and receiving with honour and care for ourselves and others. As John Muir the great Scottish environmentalist wrote:
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.
their own freshness into you... while cares will drop off like autumn leaves. Connemara Co Galway Ireland
