Weekly Wellbeing: Connecting with Nature

Weekly Wellbeing: Connecting with nature

 

Now that we've started getting some spring(-ish) weather, it seems thematic to do a WW surrounding connecting with nature

During winter it can often feel like you leave the house when it's dark and come back when it's dark, so you don't get a chance to really enjoy just being outside. Which is a shame because there's something about being in nature that just really lifts your mood and makes some of the stress disappear for a bit 😄

For a quick and easy wellbeing activity, I thought it it could be nice to:

  • sit on the front step with a cup of coffee and just enjoy some fresh air, or even the sunrise if you're an early-bird
  • go to a nearby park and spend some time reading/listening to music
  • do some gardening
  • slap in a pair of headphones and just go for a wander 
  • do anything really that helps you feel more connected to nature or peaceful in any way!

Would love to hear back about anything you guys choose to do Heart feel free to post a pic if you see something really cool/beautiful in nature or even if you see a dog! 😄
 
Some questions to reflect upon:
How does being in nature make you feel?
Do you find being out in nature makes a difference to your wellbeing? (it might not for everyone!)
