Philip Greenwood

My name is Philip Greenwood. I am the Founder of Sacred Earth Community Benefit Society, I am a group facilitator, a teacher, a nature mentor guide, trained as an outdoor expedition guide and an education specialist. More recently my life’s work has led me to becoming an Earth and Culture Restoration Specialist, and a Connection Coach that supports healthy life systems and wellbeing for all.

My current roles for The Community Benefit Society are many and include Managing Director, Land and Woodland Manager, Fund raiser, Lead Facilitator on all courses and events, alongside individual, group, project and organisational coaching and mentoring.

I have spent over 20 years working with people within nature, specializing in initiation with young persons and adults. I am trained in various Biodynamic, Arboriculture, and Horticulture practices. I have studied, practiced and taught the core routines of nature connection for over 20 years and studied, practised and taught advanced shamanic and connection practices from both the British Isles and other indigenous cultures around the world for around 25 years too. I have worked in the various roles in my life in service to something, these include my young adulthood as a Royal Marine Commando, working as an outdoor guide in Canada and on various conservation expeditions.

However, by travelling around much of the world and experiencing different environments I have gained a life experience that has supported my life and has lead me to understand what is needed for a healthy human culture to exist well on this beautiful blue planet that we all live on. This has all come to fruition within Sacred Earth CBS as I bring all my skill and experience to a wonderful restoration project.

I have been, up until recently, a steering group member of the UK Nature Culture Network and part of the 8 Shields Global movement, alongside this I occasionally also integrate work as a helper and student for Helpers Mentoring Society based in the USA. With a deep gratitude for life and all the teachers that have helped me on this journey, I am able to bring all these attributes in service to All Our Relations and to life itself.
