Alma Oasis was created in 2023, brought to life from the shared vision of two individuals captivated by the beauty and mystery of daily life but also by the climate problems and unmet solutions in our society. Our vision is to inspire the environmentally curious and encourage change in individual behaviors to have a positive impact on the earth, however large or small. ‘Alma’ means the soul, reflecting the essence of our being and ‘Oasis’ signifies a flourishing ecosystem in an otherwise arid world. Together, Alma Oasis represents the harmonious coexistence of the human spirit and nature, a place where individuals learn to thrive on a constantly evolving planet.
These modules are very informative, I am enjoying my experience.
This course was insightful and easy to move through. I knew a bit about most of these techniques before, but learning about them all together felt really comprehensive and helps me compare and contrast when making design decisions for future projects.
This course was the course to top all of them. I loved every minute!
This course far exceeded my expectations for an online program. Any doubts I had about Alma Oasis as a certifying entity have been removed. I learned so much, even though I come from a shamanic background and already knew a lot, and now I have this plethora of exercise examples to draw from. My clients are so excited to give them a try!
Fantastic course. Really enjoying it
I'm enjoying this training.
Great course with easy to understand information and lots of great activities and exercises to help with the practices. Also, really good guidelines to help to assess sites and study cases with suggested guidance on how to approach different types of situations.
thanks
Excellent
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!
Great foundation to begin sylvotherapy in practice and gives a practical guide on how to create exposure. Very informative.
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
I've enjoyed the course thus far. It's been very informative.
I recently competed the Geobiology course and have to admit, I had to look up some terminology. The course was fascinating and I thought I would pace myself more but it was so exciting to learn, I finished in just a few days. The course is outlined in a student friendly manner. Exercises and quizzes were effective in reinforcing key components. I was very impressed and look forward to experiencing more learning opportunities.
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.
