NatureRx

I am inspired and fueled by Nature, and in 2018 was Certified as a Forest Therapy Guide by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides (ANFT) in the US. The ANFT is the leading global voice for forest therapy, setting the standards for nature and forest therapy guides worldwide.

I bring a diverse skill-set and over 35 years of facilitation and guiding experience to my work. Born in Vancouver, I first began guiding people in Nature in 1986 when I was a horseback guide in Jasper, Alberta, and then in Australia. Working with animals and being in nature on a daily basis was a dream. It was then that I realized the benefits of being immersed by nature and the positive effects it had on me, and others.

I am also a Licensed End of Life Designer, and use a heart-centered approach to end-of-life, advance-care planning and education using coaching tools, including the full menu of inquiry-based Willow Workshops™. See my Live And Die Wise profile for group End of Life workshops.

My offerings are:

• Forest bathing for family, friend and employee groups,

• Group End of Life Education and workshops for organizations and the public,

• End of Life Planning sessions for individuals or couples, I always offer an initial phone call as well, for anyone who wants to know a bit more about what to expect, and for me to learn more about your needs as well,

• Nature-based private Ceremonies that I plan and guide for life transitions such as; new mom, menopause, coming of age (adulthood or wise woman), retirement, dissolving of a marriage, animal tributes, memorials and more.

Please reach out to me directly for more information on how I can help you or your Team!

Thanks,

Maria @NatureRx and @LiveAndDieWise
