Yesterday, 10 of us set out for a walk in the Hope Valley. In the drizzle, we barely saw any other folks, and we drank in the beauty of a winter turning toward spring. “The day calmed my soul” “I feel restored & inspired” “I’m surprised how relaxed I am here!”

Walking at sunrise yesterday morning 🐑🌞 I think that being in nature can help and guide us to be present. Sometimes it's the visual beauty that brings us to this feeling of here and now. Other times it can be the need to keep warm and dry in the harsh elements.

Thank you to the incredible team Green Angels - the Land Trust and all the women in the Green Angels team who do so much for so many people, communities and landscapes around England. It’s an honour to be part of all you do x

Remembering what we are, what we are a part of 🌱 #natureconnection

Great to meet Caroline Michael Cullen during her visit to the fab Heaton Norris Community Centre in Stockport, and share the work we’re doing @Natural_Academy to train & support community facilitators working in green urban spaces #stockport #natureconnection #community

Feedback from Green Angels - the Land Trust courses shows how being out in nature can have a positive impact on your wellbeing and improve your confidence! Why not spend some time in nature this weekend and destress away from the daily chaos of life! #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek Rachel Barker

A brilliant video bringing to life just some of the incredible things Green Angels - the Land Trust do. It has been such an honour to be part of this project PS River Park, guiding wellbeing programmes & walks.

We invite you to join us & Rachel Barker for a two day Woodland Wellbeing Course in #Warrington! This is an opportunity to experience the benefits of slowing down and mindfully connecting with nature. Have a look at what Green Angels Trainees have said about our wellbeing courses!

~ to restore: to return to an original state after depletion or loss. Deep, deep down many of us know there’s a greater sense of wellbeing at reach within. That we can feel and live better, a knowing that’s in the very bones of our survival and in sync with natural law…

Our Nature Connection in Policy and Practice event set out to inform, inspire and imagine a vision of a nature connected society - a blog summary and full report is now available: findingnature.org.uk/2023/09/18/the…

I was out on the hill when it started tipping it down and my trusty old yellow Mac began to glow against the grey. Moving with the sideways rain, dancing with the dog and laughing into the wind at just how good it feels to embrace this wild & changing weather! #peakdistrict

The way the wind moves… It’s amazing, the powerfulness of something that we cannot see until it interacts with another #macclesfieldforest

A little sprig of mint became unattached from the plant. I could have put it in the compost (or made tea!) but look what happens when something that’s been damaged is nurtured and given a little time, water and sunlight. Those new roots will enable a whole new plant to grow…

~ Nurtured by Nature 🌿 a 6 week wellbeing course I design and deliver for folks to learn about and experience the benefits of deepening our connection with nature. That which we are, and that which we are part of.

this place that sky. the peacefulness and joy of mornings with the forest…
