AWAKEN YOUR INNER NATURE

“I thought the Earth remembered me, she took me back so tenderly” –Mary Oliver

Reuniting with the Earth can feel like a homecoming and nourishes a sense of purpose and wholeness. It can help us release painful patterns and emotional trauma. We belong to something much greater than our small self. We are interconnected energy beings dwelling within the Earth’s vast biosphere.

Simply speaking, our inner nature is embedded in the involuntary nervous system and in our mammalian, right-brain, heart mind of knowing and feeling, which links us to other mammals and to Nature’s cycles. This instinctive, intuitive and empathic system is undervalued in our culture that is spellbound by the left -brain, linear mind of language and time.

Known for her wisdom, insight, down to Earth perspective and vivid personal stories, Shanti is an Ecopsychologist and ecotherapist, natural health consultant, university teacher and an expressive arts, meditation and movement instructor. Through her classes, seminars and international retreats, She has taught Nature- based healing practices, depth psychology and new paradigm principles to thousands of clients and students for over 35 years.

She weaves together many strands of knowledge and experiential learning in the tapestry of her work with groups and individuals, presentations and forth-coming book. She offers consultations, talks, seminars and retreats.
