Creating Sanctuary Within
Meditation Special- Recordings available for all.
Welcome to the Woodland Bard
My intention for the Woodland Bard is to create material that can really help people at this time to connect with nature and to find that still, peaceful, joyous, space within away from the excruciating busyness of human activity wherever they are.
In order to move into that space you need to create time away from devices and immerse yourself in solitude, silence and stillness.
My intention in offering these meditations here on Substack is there is no need to engage with the onslaught of adverts and feeds online which are designed to keep our minds busy and consuming.
Many peaceful blessings, Jonathon.

“A really wonderful evening connecting with nature and learning more about our own indigenous traditions too. The guided meditations were fabulous! I’d highly recommend this workshop for anyone looking for a couple of hours escape - I arrived exhausted and left energised and rejuvenated!”

Thank you for supporting this publication.
I am so grateful to receive your content. I’ve actually felt a bit lost with my lack of time for myself. Running a small farm has meant there is so much to do on a daily basis, especially since the clocks have changed and the days are longer. I am in nature all the time and we have so many beautiful things around us. This is the reminder I needed to refocus on my mind, body and spirit. Thank you, Jonathon. Blessings, always. 🙏💝
This practice lifts my heart. Thank you Jonaton for making it available and nurturing our nervous systems with these soothing practices.🙏🏻✨
