online knowledge, sparring and co-design on #naturing
#Naturing brings nature's proven healing properties - right into your outdoor space. Garden, balcony or workplace... it works everywhere!
Create your garden so nature gives you just what you need - with #naturing
We've met so many of you over the years at home, design and garden fairs, at pop-up events and when we've co-designed for you. It's all your input that we've built our online 'Strengthen your garden EQ' course around. We think we've now landed on a format that really meets your needs and that you'll be super happy with. With the online course, you'll get sparring, inspiration and co-design as we help you create space for life in the garden. We'll also give you carefully selected knowledge, so you'll also be aware of how and why things work, and get ideas for creating amazing outdoor spaces that make you happy - or whatever you need.
When we call it strengthening your garden EQ - emotional intelligence - we mean how to build our emotions in a good way in our outdoor space, so that the nature in the garden can give us exactly what we need.
Garden life can remind you of what you need to strengthen
It all really started many years ago when I left my company because I realised I could never reach my full potential in the environment I had. Throughout the process I was a dedicated gardener, often negotiating million dollar contracts in the garden on the phone - as if being in the garden itself made me a better negotiator. I used the garden in one away to relieve stress - I had family over and took as many coffee breaks as possible on a bench. After I left my company, I had a reaction that I guess was really deep stress. Out there in the garden - while the whole world ran on - I realised that I wanted a completely different life - a life outside the hamster wheel I had helped to create. And I realised that I could get the resources for my full self and my full strength - right outside.
I built a house and a garden and that was the beginning of Adiso
So I built a house and a garden. All my thoughts about a good life were encoded into that garden and home - we would never forget where we came from again. At first, it was a project just for me - and my family - especially my husband, who was often enormously mischievous on trips but could often get very serious at home. And I was the same way. So we put wood on the walls, like the cabins from our travels. We had a terrace made, it was so easy to walk out on, we would always want guests and outdoor life. We had the garden framed with flowers and plants that made us feel protected from the world out there - so we'd be inspired to remember who we really were in here.
Discovered I wasn't alone
And when the house and garden were finished - and we started having guests - we discovered that they ALSO responded to everything we had built. "Nah, but it's like coming on holiday". Or "Eww, but it's like you're away and can relax". To this day, people still react to our house and garden. When a guest comes and throws himself on the bench with such enthusiasm: "Oh, it's so great to come here - so magical - you get so ... inspired" and then people buzz and laugh and shoulders slump - well, I'm still amazed. Something that just started as a solo project for me - can also mean something to others. And that's how Adiso was born. People started asking if I could design for others too - and so I did, along with the others who eventually joined and became part of the Adiso team.
It was years before we discovered there was such a thing as health design
It was years before we discovered that millions of people have been studied in relation to nature's healing properties. That there is so much research proving that nature CAN have such an effect - that it cannot be argued that it works. But what we also know is that WHAT works can still be individual. A stress sufferer, for example, needs calm colours - and someone with a hard repetitive job - might need inspiration and more life in the garden. And it can even change for us from week to week, hour to hour.
We transfer our knowledge to you
We've selected some basic principles to keep in mind when you want to work with garden life and let nature give you what you need up close. The course is structured to alternate between online sessions of knowledge, sparring and co-design, and then home assignments that you complete at your convenience. In this way, you'll actually take ownership in a completely different way than you might imagine - and get the garden and life going the way you each want it to. Our desire is that we approach being outside - so that it feels like a place where you HOLD your resources - and not like a long to-do list. Long to-do lists are not at all what nature ever intended - it's something we've created ourselves because we don't get aligned with how we work best - with the dreams we have.
