What The Giving Cypress will present about:

"Getting Access to Healing through Nature & Forest Therapy"

This workshop will explore the many ways we experience barriers in our ability to connect with Nature- and how to work on a personal, community, and systematic level. This includes improvements for self-advocacy, self-care, and working together as an community in both human and nature environments. Great for both deaf individuals and those working with Deaf/DeafBlind/DeafDisabled/Hard of hearing community.

We will have nature and Forest Therapy invitations where participants can experience a moment of connection with the Natural world outside. Possibilities of nature journaling with focus on how they can deepen their connection with self and other humans and the Natural world.

Topics:

Outdoor Education, Conservation, Nature-related Therapy, Environmental Education

Length of presentation: 

1 hour and 30 minutes
