I believe nature can play a huge role in getting to know yourself better. In understanding how you can grow and transform into a better version of yourself. 

It’s scientifically proven that being in nature reduces fear, stress, anger and increases pleasant feelings. It helps us cope better with pain and reduces our blood pressure, muscle tension, heart rate and production of stress hormones. 

Nature has an enormously positive effect on our mood. Nature can even reduce anxious and depressive feelings and increase feelings of belonging and meaningfulness. 

We, humans, are part of nature, but it seems somewhere down the line we forgot. By nature, people want to grow; develop themselves, and are compassionate towards others. But in our hectic (digital) lives we lost connection with our nature. 

Every day we struggle with thousands of stimulants and seductions. This makes us react continuously; consume and strive for financial growth. In this constant endeavour for more, we lost our empathy. We lost our contact with nature. We lost ourselves. 

I believe by restoring our connection with nature, we restore our connection with self. Therefore I studied Biomimicry and Shamanism and I use the knowledge and wisdom from the natural world in my coachings.
