Nature Immersion and Somatic Movement (Eco-Somatics)

with Hannah McNeilly, MD, PhD

Somatic Movement (online)

In 1:1 somatic movement sessions (60 minutes) we will notice what is happening in your body, what movements develop, and will reflect on your experience. This process creates a ‘somatic dialogue’ that is guided by you and develops your bodily intuition and wellbeing. You don’t need to be ‘good’ at moving or dancing; this session is for you to notice how gentle movements can make you feel better.

These sessions are:

  • process-oriented (i.e., we do not set a specific goal at the start but follow your process)

  • resource-focussed (i.e., we do not explore pain but positive impulses)

  • gentle and mindful (i.e., compassionate, non-judgmental and respectful of your boundaries)

Seasonal ‘Forest’ Programmes

I offer the following seasonal online programmes: Spring Forest, Summer Forest, and Winter Forest, with a break in Autumn.

If you take part in the Seasonal Forest programme, you will receive the following:

  • Audio-recorded guided nature walks (released bi-weekly), which you can use in your own time, space, and rhythm.

  • Group sessions (‘sharing circles’) to share experiences, support each others’ processes, and build community (bi-weekly on Thursdays 7-8pm UK time, odd weeks).

  • Somatic movement sessions to move with ease, become aware of your resources, and integrate insights (bi-weekly on Thursdays 7-8pm UK time, even weeks).

  • 1:1 somatic sessions (60 minutes) to dive deep into your individual process, gain clarity, and create a nature-based wellbeing plan tailored to your current situation (once per month, by appointment).

At the beginning of each season, we will start a cycle that moves through six thematic blocks. A block spans over two weeks and includes a new forest walk audio recording, a group session (‘sharing circle’), and a somatic movement session. Each season includes two week-long breaks of the sharing circles and somatic movement sessions.

The cyclical structure supports a transformative process to grow out of unhelpful patterns by way of connecting with nature, your body, and other people.

Nature-Based Wellbeing Plan

Together we will design a personalised nature-based wellbeing plan. This plan is an ideal starting point to integrate more nature connection into your life. You can use it on its own or combined with somatic movement sessions.
