Philip Chard Workshop
Written by Sam Erschen   
Monday, 23 March 2009 18:31

From member John Hoff

Schlitz Audubon Nature Center

Saturday, April 25th 9:00-4:00 PM

Nature's Way: Emotional Healing, Spiritual Growth and Self Acceptance
Through Nature Interaction

Fee: $40 members, $55 non-members; lunch included

Reservations: 414-352-2880, ext. 0

The power of nature to heal the heart and grow the human spirit was widely employed by earlier cultures, but is largely forgotten in our own. Today, the emerging field of EcoPsychology is applying "nature interaction" to the modern practices of self-help, education, counseling and spiritual development. Philip Chard is a recognized leader in this field, having written one of the first books ("The Healing Earth," 1994) to apply the principles of what he calls "Nature's Way" to personal and spiritual development. This experiential workshop (indoors and out-of-doors) will provide participants with a hands-on immersion in the ideas and methods of Nature's Way. We will explore how interaction with nature can help people
overcome debilitating emotions, make difficult choices, heal loss and grief, gain self-understanding, nurture creativity, promote personal development and find spiritual "bedrock."

 

Philip Chard is a psychotherapist, book author, newspaper columnist and nationally acclaimed speaker. He writes an award-winning weekly column, called "Out of My Mind"," that appears in the MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL, and he is the author of The Healing Earth, a groundbreaking work in eco-psychology that received the 1995 Midwest Publishers Award. He is a contributing writer to Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul and has appeared as a guest expert on ABC Television's 20/20. He is an accomplished wilderness backpacker, Great Lakes sailor and nature photographer.

Philip Chard to Speak at Schlitz Audubon Nature Center
Written by Sam Erschen   
Monday, 23 March 2009 18:28

From member John Hoff:

Tuesday, April 14th, 7:00-9:00 PM

Cost: $10 members, $12 non-members

Reservations: 414-352-2880, ext. 0

We are children of the natural world, and it has a great deal to teach us about who we are and the purposes we bring to living. In seeking to understand ourselves, we often turn to psychology, personality assessments and the opinions of others. But there is another way, one richer in meaning and spiritual depth. In this hands-on presentation, we will explore how interaction with the natural world can help us more fully understand the essential elements of our nature, both as individuals and as a species. We will discover a new way of characterizing what is meant by "personality," and a more child-like and natural framework for honoring the ancient Greek dictum to "know thyself." This thoughtful, entertaining and interactive evening will be followed up with an all-day Saturday retreat/workshop on April 25th. Invite a friend, have dinner, and make a night of it!
