Leaf Series at Sholom Park, Ocala, Florida

As we step into February, a month synonymous with love, we explore the compelling emotions of awe and wonder, rediscovering the hidden beauty residing within our own hearts and souls, as well as the beauty found in nature. In the ancient Greek myth of Cupid and Psyche, we encounter a story that symbolizes the marriage between love and the soul. Cupid, or Eros, represents a profound love that inspires the pursuit of wisdom, while the goddess Psyche, embodies the Greek concept for soul or breath of life. Together, their ultimate union gives birth to beautyBy bringing forth the beauty of the soul in our lives, we unearth the deepest realms of human existence. Our discussion concludes with a guided meditation designed for you to meet your divine self, the very essence of your being – a moment to rediscover the beauty of your true nature. –– Ida Covi, is an ecopsychologist with a graduate degree in depth psychology. She also serves as the CEO of iRewild Institute.


Rethinking Wellness In Nature

Leaf Series at Sholom Park, Ocala, Florida

Have you ever wondered why you feel more energized while spending time outdoors? Why sitting in the sand by the ocean, hiking through the woods, having a picnic in a park, or swimming in a lake leave you feeling both invigorated and at peace? Mounting scientific evidence is now showing how experiencing nature can facilitate improvements in our overall health and life: our immune system is boosted; oxygen uptake is higher; lung and heart functions are improved; our body produces increased endorphins; and cellular repair mechanisms are more efficient. Dr. Peter Angood delivers a life changing presentation where participants learn about the science of how nature exposure is beneficial to their wellness and life overall.
