Mindful Movement & Eco-Psychology

Sandy Ogier, Holistic Psychologist at Psych-ed, brings therapy outside four walls. As a nature lover and global pilgrim (2 Caminos), Sandy regularly immerses herself in multi-day trails to practice lived mindfulness, resilience, and somatic grounding.

By combining her clinical experience in ACT and Polyvagal theory with her deep interest in nature experiences, Sandy offers a unique clinical perspective for

  • walking /mindfulness retreats (trauma focus),
  • holistic Body-Mind-Spirit online courses,
  • or somatic immersion workshops.

She welcomes opportunities to partner with wellness facilitators, retreat leaders, and organisations looking to integrate evidence-based psychology into outdoor settings.

Stepping in the Right Direction

Put in practice the skills of being present and raising to challenges with a flexible mind, discovering exotic locations with the support of a well-travelled and nature-focus Psychologist.

Trauma can be explored in a stimulating but safe and supportive environment (suited to ex-service personnel). This a journey of healing and self-discovery.

A 2-week Walking Retreat for Trauma (ie. in Southern France or Japan) would offer several overall benefits, including:

  • Increased emotional resilience and a whole set of practical coping skills. (incl. mindfulness)
  • Better understanding of trauma, depression, anxiety and stress management strategies (ie. less reactive).
  • Enhanced self-awareness and personal growth.
  • A sense of community and belonging.
  • A deeper connection with nature and one’s inner self and purpose
  • An increased confidence in their body, and in their capacities to embrace challenges.
