Planting Hope
Therapeutic Gardening and Emotional Health
Recorded Saturday 6 November 2021
With Ozichi Brewster, Mike Morgan, Sue Stuart-Smith and Dr Maggie Turp
CE Credits: 4 hours
Saturday 6 November 2021 has been declared a Global Day of Action for Climate Justice in which communities all around the world will come together to build power for systems change; at COP26 the theme for this date is ‘Nature: Ensuring the importance of nature and sustainable land use are part of global action on climate change and a clean, green recovery.’ Planting Hope is Confer’s contribution to this day of action, and we are inviting psychotherapists and others to join us in thinking about food, soil, land equity, and the balance of our relationship with the earth in the wider context of the environmental crisis.
READ MORE...The concept of horticulture as therapy has a long history, rooted in the belief that connection with the plant world restores equilibrium and re-engagement with life. It does so through the generative and creative acts of growing from seed, nurturing and bringing to harvest; by reconnecting us with our natural contexts of earth, weather and seasons. In this time of need for urgent climate and environmental action, connection to the needs of our planetary home, our relationship with the soil, plants and land, could never be more relevant. Furthermore, the mental health that such engagement evokes places it at the heart of psychotherapy.
Gardening develops both a sense of agency and transformation and can develop community and mutuality. It reconnects us with life beyond human technology and reminds us of our interdependence with other life forms on the earth.
