About Connected To Nature
Vision
Connected To Nature (formerly Connected Training) was founded by Calvin Silvester, a Certified Forest Bathing Guide and experienced trainer in IPS in the mental health sector, to deliver workshops and experiential sessions focused on connecting with nature that provide participants with the skills, knowledge and resources to help improve and maintain mental health and wellbeing.
Nature connection wellbeing workshop
My nature based wellbeing workshops offers something a little different to your staff and can be incorporated into your staff wellbeing at work strategy. And if you're a third sector, health or social care organisation it could also be used for promoting wellbeing amongst your volunteers or clients.
The full day workshop provides attendees with a nature connection and forest bathing experience and accompanying stress management utilising nature workshop so they can take away the learning and incorporate it into their daily lives.
Forest bathing is an evidence based nature connection therapy that has demonstrated in several studies helps to reduce stress and anxiety and by learning the techniques and methods, participants can develop a self managed practice than can help to develop resilience and prevent or relieve the symptoms of every day stresses and burnout. Using the five pathways to nature connection our experiential nature based workshop will help your staff learn: -
- How to fully immerse themselves in nature
- How to become more mindful and present in nature
- How to develop their own forest bathing and connecting to nature practice. as part of a personalised wellbeing action plan
This one day session can be delivered at a suitable woodland, park or suitable conference centre/hotel with outdoor facilities near you, which we can help you to identify, or one of our selected sites in Berkshire or Surrey (on the Waterloo line from London) and comprises of
- 2.5 hour outdoor forest bathing & nature connection session
- 2.5 hour indoor workshop on the benefits of connecting to nature and managing stress during which participants will create their own nature based wellness action plan.
I also now offer a half day workshop for organisations based in the London, Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire area.
