Geosomatics
& nature connection
For individual clients, groups and organisations interested in longer sessions, one-off sessions or ad-hoc explorations of the body including nature connection, deep listening, and quiet contemplative encounter, I offer a variety of bespoke half and full day experiences.
I have been moving in the mountains of the world for many years, and know the power of the outdoors for motivating and facilitating big changes. My specialism is helping you work with the landscape to explore your most pressing and knotty material, or simply just to listen and rest. My methods are bespoke to you but will include body and movement oriented exploration, engagement with the hard and soft landscape, and creative exercises to help you find your own intuition and wisdom. I am also a witness and listener, and facilitate quiet, mindful spaces as well. As a geo-therapist (psychotherapist and geologist!) I am particularly interested in getting people into an embodied conversation with rock - this is what I call ‘Geosomatics’, of which I am pioneering new approaches for engaging with the natural world.
If this sounds like the sort of thing you might like to consider for yourself, a group, a team just get in touch.
A full day starts from £600.
How can we move towards a geosomatics of substance? How can we be in our bodies as the earth is in theirs? How can we share in knowledges of extraction and restoration?
Pioneering geosomatics
‘Geosomatics’ is a term I have coined to name a specific branch of ‘ecosomatics’ which is a practice of exploring our living bodies in the living environment through inner sensing, mindful awareness and listening, and movement exploration - ‘soma’ being the greek word for ‘body’. My geosomatic approach focuses on how we can connect with the rocky environment including bedrock, outcrop, boulders and other solid geologic terrains. It is a practice of tuning in, inside and out connecting.
