Roots Of Life – A Journey Into The Wisdom Of Trees

With Christopher Manning

Trees are ancient teachers of patience, connection, and release. Roots Of Life is a three-day journey into their quiet wisdom, blending storytelling, mindfulness, and meditation to help you slow down and feel deeply rooted in life. Through guided reflections, you’ll learn how to trust your own timing, recognise the unseen support around you, and let go with grace—just as trees do with the changing seasons. This course is for anyone seeking calm, insight, and a deeper bond with nature. No prior experience is needed—just an open heart and a willingness to listen to the quiet lessons of the trees.


Meet your Teacher

Christopher's spiritual journey started in Shamanism. He contacted and received guidance from the late shamanic author Kenneth Meadows. This experience deeper cemented his love for trees. Christopher is a meditation teacher and artist. He paints trees as his subject matter and finds that the deep observation required to do so, draws him deeper into their silent wisdom. To Christopher, trees are silent zen masters, always teaching if we choose to stop and listen.

Lesson 3

The Art Of Letting Go

In this lesson we learn from the trees how to find peace in impermanence, learning from the effortless surrender of falling leaves. Letting go is an art, and nature constantly shows us how. In this final meditation, we become the tree, shedding our leaves peacefully, without regret or clinging, feeling the freedom that comes with being in alignment with nature.
