Nature Connection: Pathways to Curiosity, Presence and Belonging (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781919179513)

Reconnect with the natural world-one practice at a time.

This 142-page practical guide offers more than 60 exercises designed to help you reduce stress, boost creativity, and cultivate a deeper relationship with nature. Drawing inspiration from forest bathing (Shinrin-yoku) and ecotherapy, it provides simple, accessible ways to step outdoors and rediscover your sense of belonging.

At the heart of this book are the three keys to nature connection:

• ���� Slow down - release the rush of daily life and notice what's around you.
• ���� Get curious - explore patterns, questions, and hidden details in the natural world.
• ���� Use all your senses - engage sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste for a richer experience.

Through journaling prompts, sensory awareness practices, storytelling exercises, and beginner-friendly outdoor activities, this guide makes it easy to weave nature connection into your everyday life. It also includes links to companion video and audio guides plus a tie-in with the Embodied Pathways podcast, so you can deepen your experience beyond the page.
