Nature Based Approaches

Nature Based Approaches recognise the significant value of connecting with the natural world for our mental health and wellbeing. We draw on a range of practices, for example, exploring how we can engage the senses to ground individuals in the present moment, such as mindful walking or noticing natural sounds and textures. These interventions and others are supported by a growing body of evidence showing their effectiveness in boosting mood, reducing anxiety and depression, and fostering social connection.
