previous Residential TRAININGs in 2023
In May 2023 we had 2 inspiring and nourishing Mothers In Action Trainings in Slovenia and in the UK, where we dived into our mothering journey and leadership pathways & funded by Erasmus +.
During the course at Applewood in the UK, the participants were filmed by the wonderful cinematographer Cristina Panicali and we are pleased to be able to share the full length film she has put together, funded by Erasmus +. Check it out below.
“Dear Mother Nature, I’ve had the most brilliant, funny, effective, relaxing, sparkling, empowering, appropriate, heartfelt, inspired, inspiring, powerful, loving, supportive, calming and reassuring training of my whole life. Just thanks forever. ”
Presenting… the Mother Nature Podcast!
With a rich diversity of skills and perspectives each episode wants to offer council, expert interviews, case studies for professionals supporting mothers, mothers of teenagers and young mothers looking for their new identity.

We believe that motherhood - especially in the first years - is an exceptional TIME.
We go through unexpected changes, we meet and overcome challenges, we transform. We acquire and strengthen new skills, the so-called "soft skills": problem-solving, empathy, managing, and many others.
Motherhood is a powerful informal learning process.
Our aim is to create supportive communities of mothers and equip them with tools to learn about their journeys as mothers.
Mother Nature is based on three pillars: Supporting mothers in the personal transformation, nature connection, and designing our life path.
“...helping women become conscious mothers.
This is perhaps the greatest way we can help bring peace to this world.

the Mother Nature Guidebook
This guidebook is a collection of 42 principles: daily affirmations that help us to be present and aware of our journey of motherhood. They are elixirs, a-ha moments, distillations of our joys, struggles, challenges and learnings from our lives as mothers.
Each principle has an explanation, reflective questions and activity.
The Mother Nature Card Deck
This beautiful card deck contains Mother Nature’s 42 principles illustrated by 42 powerful images created by Eszter Laszlo, our team member. It is designed to support your personal transformation journey as a mother. The images and principles will guide, nourish and empower you.
“Not only does the mother give birth to her child, through the child the mother herself is born.”
“Thank you for weaving this beautiful net to connect us and for inviting us to keep on weaving sisterhood. I was able to feel a new culture rising.”
The original framework for our cooperation was a European learning partnership project running from November 2017 until February 2020, between seven European organisations, aimed at developing nature-based methodologies and tools to empower mothers in their personal transformation, and strengthening professional capacities to support them in this process.
