The Power of Connection: From Anxiety to Regulation Through Storytelling and Somatic Practice


  • Circle of Life Rediscovery Mill Woods, Laughton East Sussex United Kingdom (map)

With Madelanne Rust-D’Eye and Jon Cree.

This two-day course will explore ways to address stress and anxiety through personal stories and nervous system attunement with one another and the natural community.  We will dive into:

  • How nature-based and body-informed somatic practices can support self-regulation and unwind anxiety;

  • How metaphor and storytelling can be vessels to contain and share life experience; 

  • How relational attunement helps to re-focus attention and re-discover delight in the energy of life; 

  • How experiencing the ‘Self’ in its interconnectedness with the natural world and with others inherently counteracts anxiety.  

What to expect from this experiential workshop:

Over the two days we will use various attunement exercises in and with the natural world, and with each other, that will help us understand the neurobiology of healing. We will also look at ways of working with story and metaphor to help ourselves and our learners hold and make meaning of our life experiences. A core perspective of the programme will be that we are not alone in this –  indeed the revelation of modern and not so modern ‘science’ is that our natural state is one of profound interconnectedness.
