Ep 64 Anxiety to Awe: Shaped by the Earth ~ Tina Bramley (Old Gold Season)
Feb 20, 2024 Season 6 Episode 64
Indigo Melrose & Rose Harvey

How do you cope when you’re feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed? What if there was a place you could go to whenever you needed support or guidance? A place that allowed you to experience a feeling of well-being and a connection to a deeper, more sentient wisdom.

The good news is that place DOES exist and is available to you at any time. It’s called an earth spot and you don’t necessarily need to leave the house to go there…

In today’s episode, we explore the power of earth spots with Tina Bramley, a holistic counsellor and psychotherapist who believes cultivating a connection to nature and the earth is the key to developing resilience and boosting our wellbeing.

In today’s episode we talk about...

  • What earth spots are and what they’re used for (1:25)
  • How nature and a connection to the earth can help us cope with anxiety and depression (3:13)
  • The power and magic of imagined earth spots (6:15)
  • Why we feel called or connected to certain earth spots… and repelled by others (10:20)
  • How earth spots open us up to the experience of awe and wonder (14:41)
  • How to cultivate a connection to nature access the experience of awe (18:40)
  • How to find and cultivate the sacred in the mundane (21:43)
  • How our relationship to nature changes over our lifespan and how we can learn to connect to nature no matter where we are (29:12)
  • Different uses for earth spots (34:48)
  • The physiological benefits of connecting with the earth (36:00)
  • Why awe alleviates anxiety (37:47)
  • An exercise for connecting with an earth spot (44:01)

And so much more!
