outdoor
Step outside With us and rediscover the simple joy of fresh air, open space, and moving at your own pace. The Unstuck Path invites you to walk, breathe and notice the world around you – a reminder that clarity and calm often begin beneath the sky, in any weather.
connect with the elements
Water, Earth, Fire and Air are more than background scenery – they are living teachers. By grounding barefoot on the earth, feeling the coolness of water, or simply pausing to watch the wind stir the trees, we connect to a timeless flow of nature with ourselves.
relax and chat
Sometimes all we need is a place to slow down, share or listen to a story and be heard. The Unstuck Path offers gentle conversations in natural settings, where talking feels effortless and silence is just as welcome. Together we can let nature unpick the knot of everyday life and discover a lighter way forward.
What do we do
Nature based mentoring
At The Unstuck Path we use walking, breathwork, forest bathing, grounding, cold water exposure to and campfire conversations help people reconnect with themselves through guided movement in nature.
In ancient China, the Taoists taught that a constant inner smile, a smile to oneself, insured health, happiness and longevity. Why? Smiling to yourself is like basking in love: you become your own best friend. Living with an inner smile is to live in harmony with yourself.

Who are we?
After nearly 30 years in the fire service, I’ve seen what it looks like when people carry too much for too long. I’ve seen what it means to feel stuck, lost or broken inside – I’ve felt it myself.
“That’s why I created the Unstuck Path – to offer space, not for those who can afford it, but for anyone who needs it.”
Mentoring
At the heart of The Unstuck Path is the belief that no-one should walk alone. Mentoring here is about listening, encouraging and guiding gently, helping you find your own next step to ease, clarity and flow.
Healing
Healing takes place when we give ourselves permission to have space and kindness. Its the quiet process of restoring balance and allowing the body and mind to renew.
Movement
Movement doesn`t need to be intense. Gentle steps or mindful breathes can release what feels stuck and bring fresh energy into your life.
Nature
Nature is always inviting us back. A walk, a moment under a tree can reconnect you to calm and presence.
What can trees do for me?
Here at The Unstuck Path we help you to become Unstuck by stepping into the presence of trees, this more than just being outside, its like entering a quiet sanctuary – its a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, reconnect and simply be. This practice is often called Forest Bathing. Its now recognised around the World, even a few moments amongst the trees can ease stress, lift mood, restore balance and remind us of our connection to the Earth.
Breathe
We encourage you to take a slow breath in…notice how the air feels cooler, fresher, touched by the leaves around you. With each exhale, tension eases, the body softens and the mind grows lighter.
Listen
We help you notice the subtle sounds, the rustle of the branches, a bird calling, the hush of the wind. As you listen, the chatter inside begins to quiet, replaced by the simple music of the forest.
Connect
One of our practices is for you to rest your hand on the bark of a tree, feel its strength, its steadiness, its quiet presence. In that moment, you remember you remember that you are not separate, but part of the same living world.
Feel
As your Unstuck journey continues, people often say how their shoulders relax, and their mood lifts, how a gentle steadiness takes root inside. Time with trees leaves you carrying a little more calm back into your day.
Why Cold water immersion?
Cold water immersion ismore than just dipping your toes in or a plunge – its a practice of presence. The chill invites us to meet discomfort with calm, to breathe deeply when everything inside wants to resist, and to emerge renewed, lighter and with a huge contagious smile. At The Unstuck Path, we believe the water is a teacher. It shows us how to soften into a challenge, how to let go of resistance, and literally emerge brighter, freer and smiling from the inside out.
“Something magical happens in the water…..everyone comes out lighter, brighter and smiling.”
Water
The water wakes us up. It washes away heaviness and leaves us feeling clearer, brighter and alive At The Unstuck Path, we believe water reconnects us to the flow of life itself.
Be calm
In the cold, calm is part of the natural flow, by softening into the moment, the body learns to relax and quieten the mind, the result is Calm. It`s our belief that we learn that calm isn`t something we chase, it`s something that we can we can practice, cultivate and step into when we choose.
Being in control
Cold Immersion teaches us that control is not about force, but about responce. Meeting the cold with gentleness shows our hidden inner strength. Our true strength lies in gentleness not struggle.
Finding balance
As we leave the water, a sense of balance returns – the nervous system resets, the spirit lifted, the body glowing and for a few moments during this, all of our worries disappear, we believe its our natural state – the water simply reminds us.
Campfire chat?
After a da y of walking, spending time in nature and maybe putting our toes or full body into the cold water, gathering around one of our fires, reminds us that it`s is one of the oldest human traditions. The glow of the flames, the warmth on our skin and the simple act of sitting together invites relaxation, connection and conversation.
Relaxed
A campfire slows everything down. The crackle of wood and flicker of flames create a space where we can simply be.
Calming
Watching the fire has a way of quieting the mind. Worries soften, and the steady rhythm of the flames bring peace.
Primal
Something ancient awakens by the fire. It reminds us of stories told under the stars and the deep comfort of gathering as humans always have.
Discovery
Conversations by the fire flow differently – gentle, unhurried and often leading to new insights about ourselves and eachother.
