LA NATURA DELLA LENTEZZA
WHAT IS THE NATURE COACHING ACADEMY?
The Nature Coaching Academy brings together a team of professionals dedicated to co-creating opportunities for learning and inner growth in connection with Nature.
Our team includes trainers, professional coaches, biologists, educators, pedagogists, experts in helping relationships, personal growth, deep connection with nature, well-being, survival and mindfulness.
We are not only in love with Nature: we know its profound transformative power on our inner nature, and we have decades of experience in leading groups with this approach.
We are here to pass on these skills to you too!
OUR CREDO
We strongly believe that the ecological crisis we are experiencing is an aspect of the deeper human crisis, both individual and collective, which is rooted in a disconnected way of feeling and living the relationship with ourselves, with others and with the planet.
Schools, local communities, businesses, associations, institutions and public entities, services for tourism, personal care and lifelong learning and many other contexts: the need to “return to the intelligence of Nature” is flourishing everywhere.
We want to be part of this process of innovation and social regeneration, offering people who choose our learning journeys excellent skills to develop their profession as enablers of a paradigm shift, where people and planet can thrive together.
OUR CORE
THE FIRST EVER SCHOOL OF FOREST BATHING AND COACHING IN ITALY
We pioneered the integration of Coaching, Deep Forest Bathing (Shinrin-Yoku) and deep nature connection, designing the first professional development courses in this field.
Discover the Ambassadors and Coaches we’ve trained in Italy since 2019.
EMBODIED, CONTEMPLATIVe AND NATURE-CONNECTED APPROACH
We practice deep nature connection, embodiment and contemplative practices since the late 90s, focusing on reconnecting with our organic knowing: the ability to care for ourselves and life in all its dimensions, that belongs to all living beings, in direct continuity with Nature’s inherent intelligence.
Slowing down, silence, deep listening, sensory awakening, embodiment, somatic awareness: these are the keywords of a renewed ability to feel alive among the living, with a vibrant sense of belonging to the natural world.
DECADES OF EXPERIENCE
Our trainers have decades of experience leading personal growth and learning journeys in deep synergy with body and Nature. Diana Tedoldi, creator of The Nature Coaching Academy, has personally led thousands of learning journeys, since 2000, with over 30.000 participants. We know how to design and lead powerful experiences.
A STRONG SENSE OF COMMUNITY AND CO-CREATION
To support the radical change we want to enable in how we perceive our relationship with the natural world, we need a lot of energy and inspiration.
Being alone on this path makes it tougher and slower: this is why we believe it’s important to merge forces and foster our belonging to a community of like-minded persons.
The strong synergy and friendships that emerge through our courses are the best part of what we do, what makes us most grateful and happy. forte sinergia che si crea da un capo all’altro d’Italia fra i nostri partecipanti è uno degli aspetti più belli dei nostri percorsi!
