home and the heart

NB that from October 2019 to the end of 2020 I’m focusing on 3 aspects only of my work: the Islands of the Heart courses on Iona, the distance learning Tongues in Trees course and an ecosoul project, and completing a book on trees and its companion book on the Lost Feminine.

See also thewildways.co.uk. Bear in mind that all courses are holistic in nature, and there is a great deal of overlap between the content of this site and The Wild Ways.

The courses generally all include other aspects of being: our inner/soul life and our relationship to the outer world, especially the rest of nature, are inherent parts.
