What you’ll learn and do…
Welcome! Let’s take a few steps to create a personalised routine for building your own, deeper relationship with nature. A habit of connecting regularly with nature can support your wellbeing in many areas of life, as well as being a source of joy!
To get the most out of these activities, I recommend setting your phone to “Do Not Disturb” and choosing a quiet place where you won’t be interrupted. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out via the Contact page.
Take care: As you explore your valued emotional and physical experiences of nature, I expect you’ll enjoy doing so. Nevertheless, society often encourages us to ignore feelings, so when you pay attention to how you feel, you may notice other emotions like sadness or fear coming to the surface. Give yourself time and space to process anything that comes up.
For extra support, contact a mental health professional or access free resources from Mental Health Australia, the Black Dog Institute, or Health Direct.
Now, let’s dive in and have fun…
All you need is…
A journal and pencil (or some colours if you like)
About 15 minutes of quiet time
Journaling helps track your progress as you deepen your connection with nature. Choose a style that suits you—write, sketch, or doodle! Using a physical journal is best for immersing in the moment.
