Fox Song Farm ... Come home to your herd
About FSF ...
Fox Song Farm is a small farm in the beautiful Alberni Valley on Vancouver Island. The Alberni Valley is a rain forest known for its large trees, intricate mosses and ferns, and frequently-sited wildlife, such as deer, raven, eagles, and black bear. Fox Song Farm has a huge 800-plus year old Douglas fir at the entrance of the property, a seasonal creek with a history of fingerling Coho salmon, and tiny pockets of natural wilderness, rich with a wide variety of birds. We've even seen the occasional beaver, for a true Canadian experience!
FSF is dedicated to promoting well being through wellness events and learning venues held in a natural environment. Fox Song Farm is associated with Fox Song Books, connected through creative, whole-person, inspirational perspectives.
Fox Song Farm is home to horses, chickens, and goats, many of whom have found a sanctuary here after lives in commercial venues. Fox Song Farm promotes a natural living environment, balanced with safety for both creatures and humans.
Kindle Health at Fox Song Farm has seasonally offered private sessions by appointment for individuals. Counseling/coaching services are provided from an ecotherapy perspective and are held outdoors in or around animals and trees. The Covid pandemic has caused us to rethink services and we are in the process of reconfiguring our overall approach and currently have limited our availability. Our seasonal offerings have included:
-
HeartMath® coaching/mentoring for stress management and overall wellbeing
-
Equine-facilitated wellness and equine-guided development individual sessions
-
Applied kinesiology (PSYCH-K) counseling and coaching 'jumpstart change' sessions
-
Ecotherapy (Life coaching/counseling) individual sessions for regrouping, dealing with grief, life-transitions, creative blocks
In reality, sessions flow between all of these modalities, to fit individual preferences and immediate needs!
We are currently working on providing a more program-oriented approach that allow for flexibility of delivery, both digitally (online), streamed live and offered in a self-paced recorded format. As well, a select few courses are being planned that will incorporate learning from an ecotherapy mindfulness approach.
We are excited about our evolving approach to promoting health and wellbeing! Stay tuned!
