Marc is a nature guide, mindfulness coach, NLP practitioner, sound healer, reiki practitioner, space-holder, social ecologist and musician. His fondest childhood memories are of enchanted wanderings with the family dog on his grandparent’s bushland property. As the years passed, this love of nature flourished. Having spent decades learning from and supporting First Nations peoples, Marc is passionate about connecting to Country, reconciliation, community building, mindfulness in nature and earth medicine. Marc is determined to contribute to a more sustainable, compassionate and connected world where people and nature thrive together. Marc offers guided mindfulness walks in nature and tailors them according to the desires of the client. His walks are crafted around facilitating a personal experience of deep living connection with nature, as participants wanders in a childlike state through the bush. Walks might also include earthing meditations, bush tucker knowledge, plant and animal communication, survival skills or a didgeridoo sound bath. His primary aim is to inspire and support people to be more connected with, appreciative of and thus protective of – nature. He believes this personal relationship is key to each of us becoming Earth’s wise and benevolent stewards. Marc says the psychological and physical benefits of spending time in nature are wide ranging - from a deeply calming of the nervous system right down to clinically proven reduction in cortisol, adrenaline levels and inflammation, a natural increase in ‘feel-good’ hormones like dopamine, the exchange of positive and negative ions, increased oxygenation and alkalinity of the blood, and better sleep – all of which create a glowing state of wellbeing. Getting a clear, direct, embodied experience of being in connection with nature, he says, is so healing, empowering and joyful. Marc has many years of experience facilitating environmental education and nature connection programs for school age children and adults for his local council. As an NLP practitioner, he facilitates powerful experiences of desired positive states (e.g. calm, focused, energised, motivated, empowered) then guides clients to ‘anchor’ these states, enabling them to re-access these states at will. Marc’s sacred music ensemble, FlowState, regularly performs at public sound bath events, yoga classes and meditations. He sometimes plays the didgeridoo on his nature walks. Marc feels it is a privilege to witness people evolving and deepening their interconnectedness with life as he holds space for them. Through his modalities of nature immersion, mindfulness and sound baths, he sees his clients become more peaceful, positive, optimistic and inspired. Read more
