Building Nature-Connected Teams
Our Nature Connection Away Days enable teams to experience a deeper connection to nature while also exploring why an emotional awareness of our interdependence with nature is vital to personal wellbeing, the relational wellbeing of the organisation and planetary health.
Transformative Forest Experiences
During every Away Day, teams are guided through an immersive journey in an ancient, beautiful area of Epping Forest, starting at The Hive, just 30 minutes from Liverpool Street.
​
We introduce participants to a transformational mindset through sensory exploration, mindfulness practices, creative arts, and facilitated dialogue. Our approach situates climate, biodiversity, individual health, and corporate success within the same interconnected web of life, helping teams understand how nature connection supports both personal resilience and organisational goals.
​
Participants leave our sessions feeling resourced and nourished, with a greater appreciation of nature's interconnectivity with both personal wellbeing and organisational culture. This creates lasting change by connecting individual health benefits with broader environmental commitments.​​​

I want to say thank you, it was an inspiring experience for me. I felt much calmer and very grounded and in the moment. My state of mind had become much more positive compared to the start of the day.
