Woodland Encounters
Bluebell Wood - A private woodland setting for reflective work, held with care and intention. Part of the 74 acre Birdwood Coppice.
Bluebell Wood
Bluebell Wood is not just a location, but a setting that shapes how the work is held. It is a place where pace naturally slows, attention deepens, and the wider rhythms of the natural world come back into view.
Over time, my relationship with the land has become quieter and more attentive. Seasonal change, growth, decay, and renewal are not concepts here, but lived experience. This informs how I work with people who are navigating change, uncertainty, and questions of meaning in later life.
The wood is managed gently, with respect for habitat, boundaries, and ecological balance. It is intentionally kept simple, allowing the land itself to do much of the work.
What Happens Here
Bluebell Wood is the setting for my nature-based work, including:
One-to-one sessions: Reflective conversations supported by the stillness of the natural environment.
Nature retreats: Small, gentle gatherings offering time for rest, renewal, and deeper reflection.
Vision Quests: Carefully held rites of passage guided in wild nature.
People engage with the wood in different ways. Some take part in guided reflection, others walk slowly, sit quietly, or rest in a hammock. There is no pressure to perform or participate. The invitation is simply to pause, notice, and be.
