A summary
Participate in a range of wellbeing exercises, aimed at developing your resilience as practitioners. We are all passionate about what we do but we often give until our cup is empty. This workshop is designed to give you the support and space to nurture your own wellbeing, through a range of creative and practical activities. Each is woven from therapeutic and nature connection theory, and lived experience and have been highly impactful with past participants (including those with cancer diagnoses and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and burnout). Louise recognises different learning styles and has designed the workshop to be immersive and accessible. You may even want to share elements with participants of your own sessions. We will draw on and explore: * The importance of nature connection for our resilience * Emotional regulation strategies * The use of metaphors as a powerful tool * Anchoring positive experiences * Personal reflection time (and optional sharing of experiences) * How nature supports our personal wellbeing * How we can learn from nature to sustain personal growth

About your mentors
Louise Horsfall
Environmental Education Officer at The Hive
Since childhood, I have recognised the holistic benefits of nature connection and been driven to share them with others. I have been working in Outdoor Education and Forest School for around ten years and have specialised in targeted therapeutic work through Wilderness Therapeutic Approaches (Level 3). I also bring a wealth of personal learning and experience in using approaches such as neurolinguistic programming (NLP), self-coaching, art journalling, nature metaphors and body-mind connection activities, which have been instrumental in my recovery from chronic illness and burnout. I enjoy weaving my tools together to promote wellness in all aspects of life.
Nic Harding
Project's Officer at FSA
As the Project Officer, I'm pleased to be organising the annual Forest School Association Conference. I am appearing as a Mentor on each workshop to give me oversight and allow me to help out on the day, I may not actually be on your workshop.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
