If you are craving a healthy dose of nature, this week's episode on the physiological power of nature is for you!

I had a fun talk with the best selling author Florence Williams in this week's episode of the Less Stressed Life Podcast about how helpful simply being outside does wonder for our mood, energy, stress resilience, and productivity! 

Florence shared some helpful tips on:

• The physiological effects of being in nature
• Reconnecting with nature to boost our mood and combat stress
• How to get outside for better wellbeing (think trees, sky, grass, and water)
• Dealing with a chaotic environment

Mentioned in this episode:

• The Nature's Fix Book by Florence Williams
• shinrin-yoku (“forest bathing” or “taking in the forest atmosphere”)
