About this ebook
How do we understand nature? Benevolent and supportive? Wild and threatening? Reassuring or unpredictable? We all have a different experience of, and relationship with, nature.
Reflecting on nature's unknowable and mysterious qualities, Grounded explores how we can therapeutically benefit from a deeper connection with nature, finding within it balance, stillness, solitude, resilience, contentment, activity, fearlessness – and our own wild voice.
Within this book, you will discover:
• Mindfulness, breathing and stillness activities
• Movement exercises to connect with the physical world
• Work-life rebalancing
• Nature study and eco-therapies
