Here is the first in a new series of podcasts inviting you to deepen your connection with trees and their energy.  We start with the Alder tree and journey into its magical qualities of protection, affinity with the element of water and gateway to the realm of the Fae. The episode concludes with a 10-minute guided meditation recorded in the rain sitting under a mature Alder tree beside Hedsor Water on the River Thames near Cookham.
