A soulful opportunity to begin to re-discover the sacredness of nature by learning about the biology, mythology, history, and spirituality of native British trees: ash, sycamore, yew, hawthorn, and other species in the churchyard at St Peter and St Paul Church, Chaldon.
Walking with trees is open to people of all faiths and none.
Please arrive at 3.45pm at St Peter & St Pauls Church, CR3 5AL.
Wear sturdy shoes, comfortable clothing and depending on the weather, a rain proof coat. Bring a sitting pad or portable seat to sit on if you need it.
Mike Mullins is a leadership coach and retreat facilitator. Influenced by his background in Catholic mysticism and psychotherapy Mike runs retreats on a range of themes, from the sacredness of nature, finding the divine in the margins of life, masculine spirituality, to the ineffable nature of the divine. He has deep interest in interfaith dialogue. For Mike the key to rewilding the earth, to reversing biodiversity loss and the effects of climate change, is a spiritual challenge. How do we understand, love and treat all nature as sacred, as an expression of the divine and see ourselves as animal once again.
