The “Energy of nature” workshops, conducted previously in Singapore, aimed to identify and then practice our perception of the various energies of nature, resulting in a deeper communication with Nature and with ourselves.
"While not being able to be together in nature, we still can practice connecting some qualities of nature, helping us to go deeper in the understanding of our own qualities and strengthening them. This online workshop on 'Connection with nature, connection with myself' works together on some aspects and qualities of nature."
"The first topic is grounding and centering! Some of you might say 'again! We have explored it enough!'… There is never enough of grounding and centering. 😊 As I teach it, I still discover how good grounding can ensure stability in body, mind and spirit, and connections of it with other qualities. And grounding along with centering is getting us in touch with our heart and our intuition, helping in dealing with the events and the emotions generated, especially during difficult periods."
"The second and third topics are getting in touch with qualities of nature that can truly uplift us, inspire us and enhance our quality of being, getting us in harmony with the flow of the universe and bringing a sense of well-being in our daily life in dealing with the current events, and in connecting with other people."
Claire Elouard conducts Energy of Nature workshops in various countries. She guides and prompt us to develop our intuition to feel the natural energy of plants, and to use this energy for healing and energizing ourselves. During her workshops, participants are given the opportunity to develop and sharpen their awareness of nature’s energies, in a natural park or botanic garden, surrounded by beautiful trees.

In her 'Energy of Nature' workshops, Claire goes far beyond the mainstream science of her university studies and explores our intuitive relationship with nature, which cannot be measured, but has to be sensed.

- “The approach of Nature and exploration of our personal relationship with nature leads us to the discovery of our inner landscape and towards the opening of the heart.To contemplate a landscape, to immerse ourselves in it, takes us beyond our self, and towards a feeling of harmony and oneness with the universe.”
- Claire Elouard
