One of the greatest challenges of our age is that our earth is radically degenerating due to human activity.  The age of the Anthropocene, the current age we live in, is defined by humans’ wide-scale changes to the earth.  This has created a situation where, regardless of where you live, you bear witness to harm coming to nature: pollution, deforestation, extreme weather, desertification, fracking and other fossil fuel extraction, pipelines, and so much more. These are both wide-scale problems but also problems we see outside of our doors every day. While these are hard for any human being, they are especially hard for those of us who have found our way into earth-centered spiritual practices such as druidry, eco-spirituality, and other neopagan approaches.  To us, the earth needs to be protected, preserved, and honored. What we need is a new set of tools and practices to respond to the earth’s need for help in this current age–a set of tools to be able to respond to any circumstance we may find ourselves in.  And we need a community of people doing this work!

The Work:  The Land Healers Network

Coming together to heal the earth.

The purpose of the Land Healers Network is to provide a supportive framework for anyone, anywhere, to take up the path of land healing. We stand against the continual degradation of the earth by humans and recognize our own human birthright as caretakers, tenders, and healers.  We use both physical and metaphysical land healing techniques such as rewilding, permaculture, rituals, and energy work to address the need for healing the earth.

We come together to support each other in this healing work through workshops, conversations, and rituals. We know that this work is sacred work, and in doing this work, we are able to envision a brighter today and tomorrow where all life on earth and future generations are able to thrive. Anyone who is interested in this work can join us, grow, and learn together.  Be the change you want to see in the world!
