Courses

These courses can be taken at any time - I’d suggest you read one piece per week and putting ten minutes into your diary a few times a week to do the exercises or to journal. Coming in June ‘24 is Kissing the Earth (a month of daily emails with poems etc. and a short daily suggested exercise to connect you to nature) and in Sep ‘24 is How To Feel Better. These are only available to paid subscribers unless it says ‘free for all’.
