Rooted in the principles of ecopsychology, this workshop will explore the reciprocal relationship between humans and nature, and the profound connection between mental health and the natural world. Participants will be guided through nature-based mindfulness practices, reflective exercises, and gentle movement, including guided walking meditations, sensory awareness exercises, and journaling prompts inspired by the landscape. Local breathwork practitioner Madeleine Pizey will guide a breathwork session as a powerful practice for nervous system regulation, deepening presence, and fostering connection with the natural world. Together, these complementary practices will help participants experience how time in nature shifts the nervous system into a restorative state, fosters resilience, and deepens well-being through embodied connection with the natural world.
