"Proven: Healing Breakthroughs Backed by Science" is a 9-part docuseries currently airing a limited free premiere. Each episode explores 5 different approaches to healing, often overlooked, perhaps with skepticism, as alternate therapies. Even if we know personally that certain approaches can be highly effective, some people need the science to prove this to be true (especially when it comes to funding!). The 5 approaches recommended in each episode are offered in a countdown fashion, based on things such as efficacy, accessibility, cost, and extent of research. These are not to discredit more traditional approaches, but rather to offer other, often complementary, options for people who might be looking for something different.
Yesterday’s episode was all about healing trauma, and what was the number 1 recommended approach? Nature Based Therapies! They explored the healing power of simply being in nature, breathing, walking barefoot on the earth, surrounded by the natural world (of which we are a part of, rather than separate from!). They then also highlighted the more advanced forms, where a client is guided through their experience by a trained practitioner, with the inclusion of animals adding an even more powerful dimension.
If you or someone you know is struggling and perhaps doesn't feel comfortable with room-based talk therapies, please reach out to see how we can support in a different way.
