Synopsis

Nature’s Healing Path – 3rd Edition

A Field Guide & Handbook for Nature-Informed Therapy

If you’re searching for a proven, evidence-based way to weave the healing power of the outdoors into counseling, coaching, or personal growth, Nature’s Healing Path is your roadmap. Fully revised and expanded by the Center for Nature Informed Therapy (CNIT), this third edition distills cutting-edge research, step-by-step interventions, and more than 150 nature-based activities into one practical, reader-friendly manual.

What’s Inside

• Seven Core Modules that rewire the anxious brain, build resilience, spark “blue-mind” calm around water, and guide radical acceptance through tree-based lessons.

• Hands-On Exercises & Scripts – from Sit-Spot Practice and Forest-Bathing Water Invitations to Inner-Child Work, Mountain Meditation, Human Rewilding, Stone Skipping, and Somatic Tree Touch.

• Therapist-Ready Tools – printable worksheets, group commitment guides, activity checklists, and the short-form Nature Relatedness Scale (NR-6) for assessment.

• Extraordinary Resource Library – awe-inspiring readings, nature-informed grief guidelines, children & teen interventions, biophilic design ideas, and a code of outdoor therapy ethics.

• Certification Companion – structured to mirror CNIT’s Nature-Informed Therapy Certification Training, making it the ideal text for coursework, supervision, and self-study.

Perfect For

• Mental-health professionals, social workers, and coaches
• Outdoor educators, wellness facilitators, and mindfulness teachers
• Anyone seeking natural strategies for anxiety relief, burnout prevention, and deeper ecological connection
