Description
A day to step out of the noise and back into yourself
This one-day, nature-based supervision and reflective practice day is an invitation for therapists, supervisors, and practitioners to slow down, breathe, and reconnect, with their own nervous system, with the deeper meaning in their work, and with the wider landscape that holds both practitioner and practice. A space to be supported, restored, and gently re-oriented before returning to support others.
What this day offers
This is not a “sit-and-listen” training. It is an embodied, relational, and restorative experience that blends theory, practice, and presence.
You will experience:
- A gentle, immersive introduction to the EcoSensory Therapy model of practice
- An exploration of the theoretical, developmental, and neurobiological foundations underpinning nature-based and sensory-informed work
- Practical, adaptable nature-based tools that can enrich supervision, leadership, and school-based or organisational practice
- Space to step away from the pressures of daily work, allowing your own nervous system to settle and recalibrate
- A supportive group environment that values reflection, shared experience, and professional honesty
Throughout the day, we’ll move between walking, pausing, noticing, reflecting, and dialogue, allowing the rhythm of the woods to guide the pace.
Why nature?
When we work with others’ stories, distress, growth, and uncertainty, our own systems need places to land. This day invites you to experience how natural environments can:
- Support regulation and co-regulation
- Deepen reflective capacity
- Restore clarity and creativity
- Strengthen supervision relationships and experiences of connection
Food, warmth & nurture
Hot drinks will be provided throughout the day, and the woods will do much of the holding. You’re invited to bring something nourishing to enjoy for lunch – something that helps you feel cared for, grounded, and replenished. We’ll pause together to eat, rest, and connect. This day is about learning, yes but it is also about nurturing the nurturer.
You’ll leave with
By the end of the day, you can expect to take away:
- A clear, grounded understanding of the EcoSensory Therapy model
- Insight into how nature can support supervision, regulation, and reflective practice
- Practical, transferable nature-informed tools to use in your professional context
- A renewed sense of steadiness, perspective, and restoration
- The feeling of having been both supported and stretched, gently
See You All Soon!
Whether you’re already familiar with outdoor practices or just beginning to explore them, you are very welcome here.
There is no “right” way to show up, just bring yourself, your curiosity, and whatever capacity you have on the day.
We look forward to meeting you all soon!
