roots & wings
Hello there, my name is Alex Koster and I am so happy you have found my website.
I am a mindfulness, nature pedagogy and ecotherapy practitioner with a passion
for all things Health and Nature – I believe both are intrinsically related.
This passion extends out to a strong commitment to respect, protect and lovingly
connect to our environment and Mother Nature, as we can’t have healthy humans on
a sick planet. My professional background is in education/nature pedagogy,
mindfulness, ecotherapy and holistic health modalities (see full details below).
I am also the author of the multi-award-winning book “Roots and Wings –
Childhood needs a Revolution”, a handbook for parents and educators to promote
positive change based on the principles of mindfulness. Apart from my
professional interests, I am the mum of two beautiful daughters, and like any
parent, I want my children and future generations to grow up healthily and have
a future on our beautiful Earth. There is no doubt we are living in challenging
times and we are all affected by global changes in some way or another. The
terms eco- and climate anxiety are becoming a firm part of our vocabulary and we
need to rethink our approaches to education and healthcare. At Roots and Wings
we want to offer creative methods, skills and solutions that think outside the
box, helping you, your families and clients to feel supported, empowered and
motivated when facing these challenges.
