Root in Nature strengthens human health by connecting people with plants and nature through therapeutic horticulture, while serving as a training hub and professional growth platform for practitioners in the field. We offer a 1.5 hour course called Nature at Work which explores how elements of nature – from biophilic design to the simple presence of plants or natural light – can significantly enhance mental, physical and emotional health. The course also highlights the role of nature in boosting productivity, sparking creativity and fostering innovation.

    Enhance your therapeutic horticulture sessions by introducing a “sensory plant of the day”! This simple yet powerful practice engages participants and evokes memories. Imagine passing around a blooming lilac for participants to smell, sparking conversations about their own experiences with these beautiful flowers. Or bring in a lemon cucumber for a fun guessing game and tasting session! 🍋 Remember, sensory plants can be enjoyed year-round. Preserve plants for the colder months, or explore indoor sensory options during winter. 🪴 This tip is just a glimpse of what you'll learn in our Advancing Skills in Therapeutic Horticulture course. The next cohort starts in September: https://lnkd.in/e2KestW4 #TherapeuticHorticulture #HorticulturalTherapy #NCTRC #CTRS #ProfessionalDevelopment #CEUs
