Courses

Finding Your Ground in Turbulent Times is an 8-week course and rite of passage for anyone feeling the call to land safely back into their body, back into contact with the Earth and back in relationship with Life.

If you are feeling the need for more grounding — if you’re either too full up with the chaotic energies of these times, or somewhat scattered and fragmented — then this is an embodied journey back to living deeply in relationship with yourself as an Earth being. Welcome.

Why this — why now?

We live in the most ungrounded times humanity may ever have experienced. Disconnected physically from the Earth by concrete and steel, psychologically through the dominance of abstract thinking in the age of digital distraction, and spiritually through the deep-seated stories of separation we tell each other from generation to generation.

We’re stuck in or above our heads in clouds of anxious rumination — feeling disconnected from our bodies, our communities, the places we inhabit and the Earth at large.

But there is a simple and profoundly natural path back to connection, coherence, peace and flow. This course is a rite of passage that will take you through a process of embodied remembrance of your true nature as Nature.

Includes 1 year of bi-monthly live integration sessions.

This 9-week self-study course is for anyone who intellectually knows that they are embedded within nature’s web, but don’t yet have - and long for - a daily embodied, felt experience of being one with Life.

It's for people who know that the problems of the world cannot be solved with the same thinking they were created with, and want to learn to attune to emergent nature-aligned embodied wisdom. 

Why is this needed?

We are at the forefront of two immense challenges:

• Addressing the degradation of ecosystems, climate instability, and social fragmentation.
• Designing regenerative solutions that meet the scale of these crises.

Yet, the work of changemaking often comes with overwhelming stress, burnout, relational difficulties and the psycho-emotional toll of these urgent demands. How can we shift from operating in survival mode to thriving as changemakers?

By integrating our inner and outer landscapes we can relearn to connect to each other and to the whole of Life in ways that open up true potential for healing, growth, creativity, and emergence and most importantly, open up pathways to the deep transformation that our culture and planet so desperately need. 

Welcome to the Embodied Permaculture Course, a transformational 9-week online self-study programme based on the success of the ground breaking 18-month Alef Trust funded Embodied Permaculture Research Project.
