Leah Muller
Leah is an Art Therapist and is currently studying Ecopsychotherapy. She believes that now is the time that we as a species need to remember as deeply as possible, our Earthly roots; where we have come from, and where we may return to for sustenance and a re-awakening as such, about just how wonderful our Earth is, and how wonderful we are… tapping in to our innate capacity to discover what it is we need to move forward in life and to travel along a pathway which brings us joy and contentment through deep listening to our Self and to nature.
