Our Aim is to bring UK based Nature Connection | Forest Bathing Guides together long after training ends.
I have completed 1-1 coaching with many wellbeing specialists and Nature Guides and feeling isolated, alone and with no colleagues or community is the constant missing link that most individuals bring up. This community is being created for both existing trained guides and also for future trainee guides that access my training in the future.
You will have access to monthly live online groups and nature immersion weekends (currently there are to be two a year) and any online information libraries which will continue to grow.
Join us to gain that sense of belonging, somewhere to discuss challenges and gain solutions, feel supported, witnessed and championed in your success.

Meet Your Facilitator
Maria Chappell
Nature and Forest Therapy guide, Coach and TrainerMaria is an experienced certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide, Shinrin- Yoku Practitioner, EcoNidra Teacher, Flower Essence Practitioner, Therapeutic Writing & Story Weaving and Mindfulness / Compassion Teacher. ( Plus others that deepen and compliment the above).
She offers training with one small cohort a year to be a certified Nature connection and Forest Bathing Guides. This course is accredited by CMA.
She is the founder of Mindful Connections where she has facilitated both individual, group and private experiences to help increase balance, stillness and much needed rest.
She has worked with public groups, 1:1 individual coaching & mentoring basis and with a number of corporate teams to help promote workforce wellbeing, balance and resilience.
After a period of work related burn out in 2001 and 2002, Maria found a path to her own restoration, during a solo journey along the West Coast of Ireland. She is dedicated to helping others find their own balance, stillness and rediscovery through the healing power of Nature and connection, natural silence and self care practices.
She has now reached an age where she feels that it is important to share her knowledge in order to sow seeds of the healing power of Nature to many. Therefore her focus now is training and development, focussing on passing skills, confidence and support through training and nature immersion supervision weekends for trained Guides.
