Ecopsychology is an emerging field that recognizes the interconnectedness between human and ecological health.

Class will include experiential practices and exercises including sensory awareness and mindfulness practices to deepen connections with nature. Ideal for educators, health care professionals, environmentalists, and anyone seeking to deepen their connection with the natural world.

Lizabeth Kashinsky has been working in the field of conservation in Hawaiʻi for 25 years. Inspired by her experiences living in the remote Northwestern Hawaiian Islands for months at a time, her goal is to connect people with nature to ultimately foster better stewardship for the planet and all its inhabitants.
