She leads donation-based walks and retreats with Plant Listening, a not-for-profit organisation that explores sensory connection and deep listening as a means of redeveloping a sense of being “at home” in the world. She has co-written a film - Tawai - A Voice from the Forest, that explores the wisdom held in the rapidly declining old-growth forests of the world and is currently writing her second book, a love letter to vermin and weeds - Edge Dwelling: Encounters with Life on the Margins.

Advaya takes you outside
Spending time outside our four walls is key to connecting to and relating with nature and each other. So find your nearest window, garden, park, or forest, and allow us to provide you with tools that have the power to guide your daily life and shift your worldview. These audio practices are designed to be listened to screen-free.
