As practitioners of outdoor and nature-based therapeutic modalities, what we bring to the table truly matters. Our presence and facilitation are shaped not only by cognitive insights but also by the lived memories woven into our bodies. These embodied memories influence how we connect, respond, and create safety in the natural world.
Grounded in Sondra Fraleigh’s Ecosomatics and informed by decades of ecoliteracy and outdoor practice, this workshop offers a reflective space to explore the wisdom held in your body—the subtle echoes of your own experiences in nature.
Through a blend of short presentations and guided somatic prompts, you will be invited to: 🌱 Revisit formative nature experiences that have shaped your confidence and joy outdoors 🌿 Reflect on what may still need to be integrated or metabolized 🌾 Recognize how embodied memories may surface in your role as a guide, facilitator, or therapist
This 2-hour session blends theory, reflection, and gentle experiential practice—creating a safe and spacious container to deepen your self-awareness as a practitioner.
