Walking The Wild Edge of Grief with Amanda Bond

Wild Flow with Charlotte Pointeaux

Amanda Bond is a wild edge walker, a woman living literally on the edge of a continent, who has met the edges of her identity, her roles as wife, mother and daughter, of her menstrual cycle, and the edge of the natural wild within her and around.

Amanda is a certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide, a circle facilitator and she has been a practitioner of vibrational, earth-based, rooted, compassionate, heart-centred therapies for 18 years.

Amanda offers relational guidance in reconnecting with nature, self, others and the earth, and after receiving a message from a glacier on the South Island of au·tay·uh·row·uh, she began to get to know the plant realms in early 2015.

As Amanda navigates the depths of her grief, many sudden life shattering moments of life as she knew it giving way, she has found solace, safety and wholeness in nature. In this episode of Wild Flow we wandered through themes including:

• How living on the edge has given Amanda the ability to self-regulate and safety especially in relation to supporting her sensitivity and neurodivegence,
• Her pain at not being held by others in her experiences of profound loss, and how she found safe places to feel, cry and release in nature,
• The earth as mother who can help us come back to wholeness
• Medicine walks, vision quests and forest therapy as tools for grounding, reconnecting, opening up our senses and inner healing,
• Menstrual cycle issues as manifestations of loss and grief, and nature’s regulating effects,
• Crowning ceremonies and how Amanda is feeling the call to be initiated into her Cronedom.
• And what the wisdom of the cycles has offered Amanda
