About this event
What is archaeotherapy? How did it emerge out of working in the fields of ecotherapy and cultural heritage therapy? Why is this needed right now?
This very brief introduction will explain what the emerging field of archaeotherapy is, how it came about ,and how it is currently being delivered. A practice of intentional ancestral connection at sites in the landscape helps communities and individuals to listen to the voices of our cultural past, which in turn supports insight, understanding and healing.
This area of therapeutic work can be applied within already established modes of healing.
