This should be a wonderful day of ceremony, creativity, alignment, intention setting, prayer, community, fire, cacao, excellent company, support, dance, music, nature, sanctuary, play, fun, cacao and movement medicine, nourishment, celebration, connection, healthing/wholing, sun celebrating and aligning. That's what I'm wanting and showing up for. Will you join us? And I'm providing some live music: flute, drum, voice alongside Bonnie's wonderful skilful facilitation and DJing. Medicine Woman time! Come along, men and women. Families welcome to join final food share moment. Come join the circle? 💚💃 https://www.bonniemcateer.com/book.../summersolstice22

It is said by our ancestors that through honoring this day of light, we energetically set in motion a period of awakening in our consciousness which lasts all summer until the Autumn Equinox. A warm welcome to share this exquisite day together and harness its power to build the light within us.

We come together to be outdoors in community once again giving space and expression to what is and calling into manifestation that which we are dreaming in.

“Every so often you come across a body of work that really speaks to you, this happened when I experienced Movement Medicine It had such depth and combined Shamanism, Journey work and Dance which are all of my favourite things ! The depth of the work really spoke to me I love deep work and I would really recommend this work to anyone who wish's to explore more of their inner world. Bonnie has this amazing presence , she is so dedicated to her work. I have many years of experience as a teacher and every now and then you come across an amazing teacher who you can learn a lot from, Bonnie is one of those, I can recommend this work with all of my heart, give yourself this gift and see what happens."

“I asked the leaf whether it was afraid to fall, since it was autumn and the other leaves were falling. The leaf told me, "No. During the whole spring and summer I was very alive. I worked hard and helped nourish the tree, and much of me is in the tree. Please do not think that I am just this form, because this leaf form is only a tiny part of me. I am the whole tree. I know that I am already inside the tree, and when I go back to the soil, I will continue to nourish the tree. That is why I do not worry. As I drop from the branch and float down to the ground, I will wave to the tree and tell her, ‘I will see you again very soon.’"

Suddenly I had a kind of insight very much like the insight contained in the Heart Sutra. You have to see life. You shouldn’t say, life of the leaf, but life in the leaf, and life in the tree. My life is just Life, and you can see it in me and in the tree. I saw the leaf leave the branch and float down to the soil, dancing joyfully, because as it floated it saw itself already there in the tree. It was so happy. I bowed my head, and I knew that we have a lot to learn from the leaf because it was not afraid; it knew that nothing can be born and nothing can die.”

Hi all, I'm going to be doing a bit of a clear-out in next few weeks. I have a number of mindfulness and buddhist-based books for sale if anyone is interested? Purchased whilst studying for MA.
All in very good condition.

Forest Bathing at Jersey Heritage sites commencing this month, join me as we explore Hamptonne, La Hougue Bie and other sites with new eyes. Forest Bathing is a sensory journey, opening our awareness of what is always present but often obscured. Reconnecting with nature, rewilding ourselves and remembering our part in nature.
It's a beautiful, simple, yet profound experience, often illuminating and insightful.
As a Forest Therapy Guide I invite you into a new relationship with nature, the rewards are many as the trees and plants gift you with many health benefits:

Resetting your nervous system so that you respond rather than react to triggering situations
Increasing energy and vitality
Decreasing chronic fatigue
Managing pain better
Harmonising blood pressure
Feeling uplifted
Increasing body's capacity to fight dis-ease

These are just some of the evidence-based outcomes of Forest Bathing documented over the last 2 decades in Japan and other countries.

Booking essential through Jersey Heritage, with discounts for JH members. Use the link below for more info, dates, locations, and prices. I look forward to seeing new faces along the trail as well as friends made previously on earlier walks.

Forest Bathing is accessible to all ages, families and other groups welcome.

Forest Bathing walks being scheduled - weekly and on demand.

One of the group participants works in the Pain Clinic - he thought it perfect nature-based activity to slow down, soothing, calm and focus the mind.

I bring awareness of prior training in mindfulness-based psychotherapy and Craniosacral biodynamics into the way I guide. Trauma informed.

Many local beauty spots and sacred locations visited on the Forest Bathing sensory experiences

DM for more info and booking.

Have a wonderful day!
