We do this through various workshops and events. We seek to empower people to unite and make positive changes in the local community.

Services

We offer an interdisciplinary approach to well-being and building community. We believe in mutual aid, peer learning, and working collectively. We are a not-for-profit that adheres to cooperative and ethical values.

We provide workshops, retreats, courses, and consultancy. We believe that immersion in art, creativity, meditation, and the natural world are ways to enhance performance, productivity, mood, and health.

Our research and experience show that safe and healing spaces are essential for mental and physical health. We provide places where people can express themselves and connect to themselves and each other. 

Earth Moves influences holistic and self-empowered ways of engagement, healing, conflict resolution, and enhanced understanding. We offer organizational development activities as well as community education and well-being events.
In the face of climate change, we also seek to empower local people with knowledge and practical skills to tackle this existential crisis.  Innovation, imagination, collaborative practice, and creativity are crucial to improved working conditions, creating communities where physical, psychological, and environmental wellness can be supported, and promoting healthy ecosystems.
 
The highly qualified and experienced team at Earth Moves uses various techniques and strategies to deliver our work with skills that range from cooking to sculpture. We can provide diverse events that reflect the local community's needs and desires.

Nature Immersion and eco-therapy -for groups, communities, and business
Meditation groups and sessions can take many forms, but most are simple, transferable techniques that are not mystical or dependent on a particular belief or religious view. Instead, they are functional tools to transform the mind and can benefit almost anyone. 
Dance for mental and physical health Earth Moves dance sessions are used both as a therapeutic tool and a non-verbal way to unite groups in a safe space. Dance is an excellent form of mindfulness that heightens awareness of the body, sensations, and emotions while connecting with the group consciousness.
Holistic and well-being projects – Involving nature, dance, drumming, music, and the visual arts, as well as self-discovery and recovery from trauma and addiction. We offer opportunities to attain collective health, happiness, and creative expression.
