Nature's Reset Button

The beauty of Nature is undeniable, a source of wonder that lifts our spirits and grounds us. It's no surprise that spending time outdoors is good for us.

Nature is under utilised when it come to healing or getting over a bad day. A drink and something to watch seems to be the easier and more convenient solution however this is a quick fix and does not allow for head space and it is this head space that opens us up to answers, ideas and peace.

We don’t need to go on a Forest Bathing course to enjoy the benefits of Nature. Just go, get out there walk, breathe and if you’re minded to, sit. It is about absorbing and resting. Sometimes it can feel like your “Enter” button has been pressed repeatedly and so allowing some air into that brain so it can stop is essential to a balanced system.

Many scientific studies (see below for some examples of all studies mentioned) have looked into the benefits of spending time in Nature and the conclusions have been unequivocal. Spending time outdoors is like hitting the reset button on your stress levels. It also improves mood, boosts creativity, and even helps us sleep better. It is so easy that it is literally a walk in the park.

Nature Heals Us All… Including Our Dogs

Just like us, dogs absorb stress from their environment, especially from their humans. They're sensitive to our emotions, picking up on the tension we carry. But the answer, again, lies in nature.

Studies show that regular walks provide countless benefits for your furry friend. They get much-needed socialisation, mental stimulation through new sights and smells, and of course, exercise to keep their bodies healthy. A stimulating walk strengthens their hearts, improves digestion, and helps manage weight. But after all that adventure, it's time to recharge.
