Beginning with an evolutionary history of the relationship between
man and his environment, Nature-Guided Therapy takes us on a
cross-cultural journey into traditional healing disciplines, such
as ethno-medicine, sociobiology, and anthropology. By examining
clinical data, empirical scientific investigations, and anecdotal
accounts, Dr. George Burns helps point the way to healing benefits
of a balanced relationship with the environment. Case histories and
step by step procedures for utilizing nature-guided strategies are
also presented. Designed as an immensely practical guide for
clinicians, this volume contains over 80 therapeutic exercises and
a variety of nature-based strategies to help augment clinical
skills regardless of one's theoretical orientation. Also included
is the author's Sensual Awareness Inventory to help access the
client's experiences that may facilitate relaxation, happiness, and
wellness. This book provides a fascinating read that can expand our
views, challenge our therapeutic paradigms, broaden our clinical
practice, and provide simple yet pragmatic treatment interventions.
