The months between January and February are known to be tough - but whatever occurs, nature is one constant as we navigate the stress of life.
Here's an in-depth journey through the four trees that are starting to emerge in this window between the Winter solstice and Imbolc.
A journey to support you in reconnecting with the life around you and in remembering how our Celtic and Druid ancestors revered woodlands as a sanctuary and the birthplace of our 'WISE' isles culture.
Walking the path to build a connection with the tree beings that our ancestors would have looked to for restoring a sense of self in the web, in the cycle they were a part of.
We will meet these tree beings at the science, spirit, and story levels, so however you like to start building a relationship to place or self, there will be a stepping stone for you to use. As there is no wrong way to connect back to a place that is already your home, you have just forgotten to be there.
