Sylvotherapy Course

I greatly enjoyed the Sylvotherapy Certification Course. It was incredibly comprehensive and science-based. I feel as though I have a firm understanding of content materials and I look forward to conducting Sylvotherapy Sessions in the future!

Sylvotherapy certification

Great foundation to begin sylvotherapy in practice and gives a practical guide on how to create exposure. Very informative.

Sylvotherapy course

The course was set up in a very comprehensive manner. The important points were well covered. Very thorough course on the importance of phytoncides and the benefits they give to us and the planet. Im looking forward to continuing my education with this company.

I’m super happy

Loving all the information

Loving all the information provided and having a time stamp on the notes would help with a slower recording in order to comprehend and take notes. Will relisten to recording a few times when finished to he sure that I have mastered the subject. I am excited about getting people into the woods!

A good introduction

I took the Sylvotherapy Practitioner Certification Course. For an introductory course it was a good value at 70% off but I have several caveats. This is an introduction only and as such I was bothered by the last module focusing on how to advertise and start up a business. You could quite literally be incapable of identifying any tree species in your area before setting up a business. I feel it would have been much more efficient to focus on the role a guide takes and how to facilitate sessions with a diverse population of clients, what being trauma informed means, practicalities of running courses in the woods, off trail, on trail, on public land, on private property, etc, the importance of first aid training, the importance of indigenous local to you tree and forest lore, safe foraging protocols...I could go on. Give us fully cited readings and a bibliography of books to read early on in the course. A lot of the info is from books over 20 years old and/or problematic books that have been challenged both scientifically and by Indigenous communities. The last module really should have laid out the areas that people needed to address as continuing education before they started selling their services. There's a valid reason why without the educational credentials you can't touch the term "therapist" where I live and this will not qualify you to use it. Still with my own background as an educator, with art therapy trainingm and as a wildcrafter with over 30 years experience I did get ideas about transforming my outdoor forest school experiences into things I can share multi-generationally as well as with people in hospice which is what I wanted to be able to do.

Somewhat useful

I find it frustrating when things are referenced but not described. An example would be the meridians. If it is important enough to include, then there should be more information. The exhaustive list of meridians without any diagrams renders it useless. Are we supposed to memorize all of the names, but not know where they are? If someone hasn't done a lot of study already, several of the references don't mean anything. The course should be fully self-contained, which means I don't have to consult other resources to understand what is presented.

Very Transcendental!

One of my most favorite units that I taught in my junior English classes was Transcendentalism. I love Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, even so much that in preparation for teaching the unit, I rented a cabin in the woods for a week in the summer while I created my classroom lessons. Now that I am retired, this course has brought me back in touch with Nature and has provided more in-depth information about the science of sylvotherapy.

It's a very comprehensive course

I enjoyed this course, it's very informative and comprehensive of sylvotherapy. And it's structure is very easy to follow through. Wonderful course!

Very good! Comprehensive and detailed.

Lots of information

There is so much interesting information given on each of the modules, I would like them to be spoken a bit slower in order to take notes and comprehend better. It is facts and details that are being taught constantly.

Everything in one place.

This course provides all the essential elements needed for a successful sylvotherapy practice.

Love This!!!

This has been a trove of information, and I can't wait for my first forest bathing session.
