We will review compelling research and discuss practical, coach-ready strategies to help clients reconnect with nature in ways that soothe, restore, and heal. Beyond its health benefits, nature can also serve as a catalyst for inspiration and growth. Time outdoors can help clients access positive emotions that broaden perspective, spark creativity, and reveal untapped strengths and resources. Nature also offers a natural arena for challenge and adventure—experiences that build resilience, confidence, and personal expansion. Together, we’ll explore how to help clients design growth-promoting outdoor experiences that align with their goals and values. By the end of this course, you will be able to: Describe the scientific evidence supporting nature’s impact on physical and emotional well-being. Share practical tools and resources that help clients engage with the healing aspects of the outdoors. Explain how nature fosters inspiration, creativity, and expanded vision.

I took the class hoping for 3 things: first, that my coaching skill would be elevated to a higher level; second, that I would be personally transformed; and third, that I would establish new meaningful relationships with other coaches. All these things took place – and not just as an event occurring at a particular moment in time, but as a seed that was planted and continues to grow and bear fruit. The initial residential experience established us as a deeply connected group. It laid a foundation of trust and openness that facilitated a deepening connection throughout our classes and practice together during the months to come. The reading and related classes were incredibly enriching. The faculty was outstanding. The weekly online classes became a moment in the week we all looked forward to. The closing residential session was a reunion of dearest friends that took us to new depths of awareness and new vistas of personal vision. Like the ripples from a stone thrown in a pond, I will be feeling the effects of my PCT class for quite some time as I continue to learn and grow. I am incredibly grateful to have taken this class.
