BIO

Carina Lyall is a Teacher, Storyteller, Story Gatherer and host of the popular podcast called ‘Becoming Nature’. Born in Labrador, in remote Northern Canada, to a European mother and Canadian Father, she weaves her Indigenous and Western ancestry into her rewilding work in a Danish forest. 

She has run courses and workshops for the last 12 years - Medicine Keeper apprenticeships, The Art of Holding Space, Tending to the Fire, Earth Medicine mentorship as well as workshops on story and storytelling.  She has interviewed global experts and activists including Steven Jenkison, Bayo Akomolafe, Clare Dubois on sustainability, the wild, skill building and climate issues. 

“For the past 12 years I have gathered people in tending to the fire, earth medicine mentorships and apprenticeships. I’ve told and gathered stories. Most importantly I’ve listened. Work I started, because I longed for community for myself. Trying to make sustainable change for the Earth and the people. I have longed for those who held lived experience and stories. Those who could guide us in a life full of uprooting and free falling “

Carina also draws from her 3 years of teacher training in Mindfulness Meditation with renowned teachers Martin Aylward and Mark Coleman, as well as completing her in-depth MBSR (Jon Kabat-Zinn’s Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) in Denmark.

Throughout the years she has received teaching from teachers such as Noah Levine, Binnie Dansby, Anna Verwaal, Andrew Fretwell, Diane Pool Heller, Stefana Serafina, Leah Lamb and more.

TESTIMONIALS

“Carina has a rare talent for spotting deep patterns, unfolding them and in a very holding space, supporting you to move towards a place where you feel most comfortable. She is a rock and inspiration that allows people around her to unfold. And she is liberatingly open-minded and non-judging. Carina is a woman who is a gift to have by your side” Laila Torsheim, yoga teacher and psychologist at www.yogakompagniet.dk 

“Carina has the gift to be able to hold the space in such beautiful way. No unnecessary interruptions, no unnecessary comments, no pressure to try to resonate. She wasn’t there to show me she gets me or how smart she is, just to love me with my stories by holding the space. As a story keeper Carina brings the gift of healing in a sort of lost art. Holding space like nobody to be able to tell our stories in a way that we want to remember them. I felt so whole.“ Fernanda Lodeiro, Whole Fertile Life And Feminine Leadership

“Carina brought me to a good place, both as an individual and most importantly amongst others in a close, comfortable radius. Her carefully planned themes were focused on sharing insights, both hers and ours. Carina’s knowledge and questions brought us skillfully to sharing and building our thoughts. Her form of guidance is based on seeing both the personal and the universal, the shared and the unique in us, and bringing us the next step. There are many others around that though invariably very different form ourselves share the same. We are women. And Carina is a gem. You nurtured both body and mind.” Christine
