If you are an eco-coach, forest bathing guide, or work in the frontlines of climate action, this course will enable you to experience the many ways poetry facilitation can enhance your nature-connection practices for yourself and when working with others.
We experience the full impact of poetry, when we learn how to facilitate a poem so that we and others are changed and transformed by it. By the end of this course, you will have all the tools you need to feel confident in being able to craft poetry sessions that are engaging, creative, and impactful.

As we confront the challenges of climate disruption, mass extinctions, and a litany of natural disasters, nature poetry nourishes and revives us. It provides a way to weave our consciousness back into right relationship with a sentient earth and offers hope and inspiration.
Each formal session will also offer the option of a further 15 minutes for those who want to remain on the call to ask questions of Mary.
Please note: This course is limited to just 16 people and will fill out fast. It is for those who are using poetry, or would like to, in their nature and eco- work and climate practices, and are ready to take it to the next level. The course requires your full participation. If you feel you will miss more than one session, then please wait until we offer it again. CPDs are available.
You may wish to have writing materials available to you during the sessions.
