The nature of healing is rooted in our relationship with all of life. When we wake up to our authentic self, our thoughts, actions, and life reflect the innate compassion and creative change of the
natural world.

NATURE CONNECTED ORGANIZATIONS AND PRACTITIONERS
Attraction Retreat,
www.attractionretreat.org , Bellingham, WA,
has a simple philosophy: We come from the Earth and are totally dependent upon
it for our sustenance, so we require a healthy planet in order to be healthy
ourselves--and vice versa. By getting people back in touch with their roots in
the natural world, our three synergistically woven branches are catalyzing
personal healing and empowerment, the re-birth of mutually supportive,
independent local communities, and greater networking with others for cultural
transformation and environmental sustainability.
Full Circle Center, http://www.fullcircletaos.com
in Taos, NM
offers classes and workshops focused on reclaiming our world one spirit at a
time. By reconnecting with our natural senses through nature, sharing a
community support system model, we regain the ability to live independently
in interdependent holistic harmony.

West Palm Beach, FL. I am a nature and art
therapist. I've developed fun, creative activities, which I use with clients to
help them reconnect with the nature inside them and unearth their true
identity. Art is a wordless language of the soul just as nature is and the
combination of the two leads people to deep insights and understandings, which
change their lives in profound ways. Although I work with a variety of issues,
my specialty is eating disorders.
