In our personal and collective efforts to resist and transform burnout culture, many of us engage in embodiment and mindfulness practice, only to re-enter the cycle of burnout in our working lives. How can we shape and design our workspaces so they invite more space for regenerative growth - one grounded in nature's principles of reciprocity, diversity, rest and care? What can a workspace intimately connected to the needs of the body look like within head-centric ways of working? In this month's episode, we bring to the show Monica Sander Burns, a certified Forest Therapy guide and founding partner of Society of Trees, an organization helping to bring the rejuvenation of nature therapies to the workplace. Monica has guided hundreds of participants through Nature therapy sessions that have been designed to replenish and restore a depleted workforce. In our conversation, Monica maps out what a biophilic workspace can look like, embedding nature immersion in our working lives that interweaves human and ecosystem wellbeing as remediation to workplace burnout culture.

Question: How does nature help with regulation and balance?   Dave's forest therapy training - https://anft.earth/   Emotion Regulation tip #1 - let things be complicated Science and mystery Concrete concepts around ourselves and our bodies as well as spiritual or less concrete concepts around ourselves   Emotion Regulation tip  #2 - we regulate when we provide a space For each other (co-regulation) For ourselves (self-regulation) We are a part of nature and regulate within nature. We are constantly in a process of shedding and restoring. God designed us with internal and externally connected regulation methods.   Emotion Regulation tip #3 - getting out of our own way of regulating How do we accidentally get in the way of regulating naturally? Origins of forest therapy with the advent of tech/media Benefits of the natural world on our cardiovascular system   Emotion Regulation tip #4 -find the blue spaces and the green spaces 3 specific outlined mechanisms for emotion regulation in nature:  foster positive emotions Signals parasympathetic nervous system or rest/wellbeing state  connection and care of nature as respite, rebuilds energy   Emotion Regulation tip #5 - practice grounding Finding a sense in our body that we have a firm foundation, tethered to the ground or our seat Often feel “ungrounded” in chaotic world and holding 3-5 emotions at any given time Increasing vagal tone Links: ANFT website - https://anft.earth/ Enoch story (Genesis 5)  Noah Kahan, Stick Season - https://youtu.be/iWG6apzIWAk?si=EBS0Ll7biACsxNob Inside Out - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2096673/ Job 38-42   Research: https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/why_trees_can_make_you_happier#:~:text=Those%20who%20gazed%20at%20a,break%20from%20our%20frenzied%20lifestyles. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0272494424000987#:~:text=In%20everyday%20life%2C%20people%20are,et%20al.%2C%202019).

When I think of someone confident, the word happy also comes to my mind. It seems that those who are the most confident in themselves are the most secure and seem the most happy by definition. I think that throughout our confidence journeys, we're trying to find the things that will make us happy, the things that make us feel most alive and secure in ourselves. We're conditioned to think that it's material things or situations, but we all quickly realize that those things will not make us happy. My guest in this episode knows a thing or two about happiness and shares some amazing tips. I am so excited to introduce you to Diane Pienta. Diane is a creativity mentor, healer, forest therapy guide, and author. She's a former businesswoman and was sparked by a cancer diagnosis to transform her own life. She explored alternative healing, herbalism, yoga, and meditation, which led her to a new career in nontraditional ways of finding joy, inner peace, and creativity. She's the author of Be the Magic: Bite-Sized Nuggets of Wisdom to Feed Your Joy, Nourish Your Soul,  and Open Your Heart.In this episode of the Contagious Confidence Podcast, we talk about:What happiness means How to find happiness Ways to be happy How to identify your strengthsWhy self-compassion is so important How utilizing your strengths can lead to happiness How happiness and using our strengths can help us with our confidence Where to Find Beth:Book: Be the Magic: Bite-Sized Nuggets of Wisdom to Feed Your Joy, Nourish Your Soul, and Open Your HeartWebsite: dianepienta.comInstagram: @dianepientamagicStay Connected: Katie's IG: @katieehawkes Podcast's IG: @contagiousconfidencepodcast Email: contagiousconfidencepodcast@gmail.com

The Catskills naturalist John Burroughs once wrote, "The place to observe nature is where you are; the walk to take to-day is the walk you took yesterday. You will not find just the same things: both the observed and the observer has changed; the ship is on another tack in both cases." His 1886 essay, "A Sharp Lookout" predates terms like "sit spot," "forest bathing," and "shinrin-yoku" by about a century. But the sentiment is the same, and Catskills practitioner Lara Land is a master at it. Join us for some forest therapy along the Andes Rail Trail and reconnect with the outdoors! Lara Land can be found at LaraLand.us. Lara is the author of The Essential Guide to Trauma Sensitive Yoga, and she hosts the podcast, Beyond Trauma.
