I take my dog Nola out frequently throughout my day – and I always come back with a clearer head and happier heart. No selfies, no scrolling and certainly no technology in sight. Sure, it can cost a little more and be a bit harder to find, but this way, I know every pound I spend is a vote towards practises I want to see more of in the world It makes my dog-walking schedule a genuine joyįorest bathing may sound like an intense concept but the practice really is as simple as walking out in nature (a park, woods or coastland) and consciously connecting with what’s around you. This is why I try to only eat organic food and wear organic cotton, knowing that any workers or land involved in their creation were not exposed to chemical fertilisers or potentially harmful pesticides. Having a personal 'buy less, but better' shopping mantra and a general 'people over profits' ethos means that I care about the materials I wear, the food I eat and the people involved in the production. We've become more aware than ever of the planetary impact of disposable plastics, general waste and resource-heavy production, So, it's no surprise I made some small changes that have had a big difference in how I live my life. It helps me appreciate our earthly resources

So, let me share how enjoying the physiological benefits of eco-therapy makes my every day better. The term for the Japanese art of forest-bathing 'shinrin-yoku' may have emerged back in the 1980s, but it only confirmed what we all already know: that time spent reconnecting with nature is good for both our mental and physical wellbeing. In a world that's constantly changing, innovating and growing, there's a certain solace in knowing that a tree remains a tree – and life doesn't only exist on a screen. Albert Einstein once said ‘look deep into nature, and you will understand everything better.' I'm no physicist but I wholeheartedly agree.
