What People Are Saying
TREE OF LIFE sheisseenmovement.com
As I have deepened into this first module, I have found myself feeling like this course, the books I’m reading from the recommended reading list and the rabbit holes I’ve found myself researching online have me feeling very aligned with this path, and perhaps even why I’ve been doing the things I do. The way this study has me connecting the dots from where I’ve been to where I am going is feeling like a therapeutic weave itself - one I knew I needed but previously had no idea where to look for and can make all the difference.”
Ecotherapy Student and Earthart Activist Libby Tozer

What Students are saying:
“I feel the ability to write so deeply has been unlocked.. I find nature has no judgment and when immersed, I breathe so slowly it almost feels like I’m part of the wind. I feel I’m able to release these bounds (my past) that I thought defined me. I thought these incidents made me who I am, but I’m not. Being in nature I realise I’m not my thoughts and I’m not these events.”
“As I become more aware of this ‘eco self’, I feel more grounded in myself, and this will transmit to those I work with.”
“The Ecotherapy teachings are having a powerful influence on my work. It’s helping to provide more structure and expansion to my workshops and also my indoor experiences. I recently had the opportunity to offer my program to children which had such positive feedback that I am now making it a permanent fixture of my business and looking to expand into the local schools. I just wanted to say a massive thank you for doing what you do, it’s helping to move me in a direction I never thought possible and I’m loving every minute of it.”
What unique idea/calling would you like to imagine and grow in Ecotherapy?

When we dare to face the cruel social and ecological realities we have been accustomed to, courage is born and powers within us are liberated to reimagine and even, perhaps one day, rebuild a world.

Why groupwork
“I am because you are”
We are all connected in the web of life, though we may not feel it. The energy of groups wakes you up to this truth. Groupwork works actively with what Thich Nhat Hanh calls INTERBEING - the oneness of all life. Working in groups reduces individualism and the conditions for human exceptionalism to infiltrate our consciousness.
Thomas Hubl, author of Attuned Practising Interdependence to heal our trauma and our World, a and expert on Collective Trauma & Healing says our superpower is our ability to connect with others is the magic of connection that we can harness intentionally in groupwork, which has powerful healing potentials.
