Walking with you as you journey home to your
true nature

Welcome, dear one…

I am so glad you found me

Hi, I’m Tansy.


Forest Bathing Guide. Natural Intelligence Facilitator. TEDx Speaker.

And a woman who knows what it means to feel lost inside a life that once fit.

I create spaces β€” in Nature and in life β€” where you can exhale, reconnect, and return to a deeper way of being.

Because here’s what I believe:


We are Nature.
And when we remember that, everything softens.

The pressure.
The performance.
The belief that we have to earn our peace.

Come walk with me…

The women drawn to my work are high-capacity, heart-led, often holding too much.

They crave rest β€” but don’t always know how to take it.
They long for clarity β€” but feel pulled in a hundred directions.
They’re drawn to Nature β€” not as an aesthetic, but as a teacher.

They’re not looking to be β€œfixed.”
They want to feel met.
Held in a rhythm that lets them breathe again.

My work weaves together ancient rhythms and modern reality.

This isn’t off-grid.
It’s not all-or-nothing.
It’s the quiet courage to live a little closer to the truth of who you are β€” and what you need β€” in this season.

Everything I offer is grounded in one truth:

You don’t need to escape your life.
You just need to remember the rhythm that’s already inside you.

And when you do?
You stop asking permission to rest.
You stop doubting your clarity.
You start walking in time with something wiser.

Come walk with me.

FOREST BATHING CURIOuS?

Scientific studies now confirm what many of us feel instinctively β€” that mindful time in Nature lowers stress, improves mood, boosts immunity, and regulates our nervous system.

But beyond the data, something deeper happens.

Forest Bathing isn’t about hiking or learning plant names.
It’s about slowing down enough to let Nature speak.
To feel yourself soften. Reconnect. Exhale.

It’s a guided experience that helps you return β€” not just to the woods,
but to yourself.

To your senses.
To your aliveness.
To the rhythm your body has been missing.

If you’ve felt the pull toward Nature but weren’t sure where to start β€”
this is your doorway.

I offer group workshops open to the public and private experiences for 1-8 people

    β€œHaving experienced the wonderful group walks, I wanted to try a more focused approach to help tackle my anxiety and delayed trauma. 1:1 walks with Tansy are wonderfully gentle yet incredibly powerful. They give me space to breathe, talk, observe, accept and simply to be. I am left feeling nurtured, relaxed and as though I’ve hit the reset button. Highly recommend”

    β€œI really didn’t know what to do next, life was overwhelming, decisions impossible, tears just flowed... Tansy not only guided me around the beautiful woods of Chartwell she guided me on an amazing journey, giving me tools and helping me focus on the important things, I have started to discover my true self. I am so happy...I couldn’t say that before.”
