The Rooted Connection Sessions - a monthly journey into nature, connection and self
IMAGE
The Rooted Self Sessions are a space to explore an intentional connection with nature, ourselves and community.
Neuroscience shows that time spent in the natural environment can reduce stress, calm the nervous system and support resilliance.
Beyond the science, we are not separate from nature but an integral part of it. Nature is a living, breathing thing and our bodies, minds, and spirits are shaped by the same earth, water, air, and sunlight that nurture forests, rivers, and animals.
The Rooted Connection Sessions offer a gentle space to reconnect with the earth, the natural world, ourselves, and each other. We’ll explore this through practices including eco and nature therapy, mindfulness and meditation, somatics and embodiment, along with invitations for reflection. At the heart of these sessions is a commitment to reciprocity with nature. How can we cultivate ways to connect that give back rather than take. We’ll also explore the energies and themes of each season, deepening our attunement to the natural cycles around us.

Reconnect with nature, nourish your wellbeing and connect with community at the rooted connection sessions at the Nature & Wellbeing Centre, Edgbaston Reservoir, Birmingham
This is for you if:
You’d like to explore your connection with nature in an accessible space: sessions will take place at Birmingham Settlement’s Nature & Wellbeing Centre at Edgbaston Reservoir. We’ll have their beautiful, geodesic dome to keep us warm and dry in between our nature explorations.
You’d like to discover practical tools to nourish you and support your wellbeing. As a counsellor and therapist, meditation teacher and a space holder in earth-based spiritual practices, I’ll be sharing practices that encorporate some or all of these elements. You can take these practices into your every day life to continue to deepen your Rooted Connection outside of sessions. If you’d like to find out a little more about me, you can head to my homepage. You might also want to check out my FAQs or this post about my values.
You’d like to be in community with others. Just like the natural world, we’re part of a wider eco-system. There will be gentle, optional invitations to share your reflections or experiences if you would like to.
You feel called to be in an intentional, trauma informed and gentle space, where you can nurture yourself and disconnect from your day to day life.
