We are excited and proud to announce that you can register now for our unique training in nature based coaching skills.
Why have we launched this course?
For too long, coaching has been limited to indoors, inward-looking ‘self-discovery’. Coaching has been virtually silent on the climate crisis, the ecological emergency, and issues of health, social justice and equity. This needs to change.
We believe that coaching needs to support and enable a new relationship with the planet. A relationship based on worthwhile and sustainable life for all. This is what we call ‘Nature Based Coaching’.
Nature Based Coaching is more than a ‘walk and talk’. It is a philosophy and practice that starts with deepening our own relationship with Nature. Nature Based Coaching supports coaches and clients to transcend the self and include the planet in the frame.
What is it all about?
Nature Based Coaching Skills is an experiential and evidence-based programme where you will learn to partner with Nature in your work. You will enhance your coaching skills, and accelerate your growth as a coach who benefits client wellbeing and planetary health.
The course will cover the major frameworks, theories and models that you need to understand; develop your working knowledge of the imperatives behind working with Nature; and offers a rich learning environment to develop a more confident practice.
Nature Based Coaching Skills is the first course of its kind to be led by a Chartered Environmentalist and Professional Certified Coach.
“Great to share our personal experiences of nature and how to embed this into what we do professionally as coaches.”
