There is more and more evidence coming out that nature has a really positive impact on people's wellbeing and their mental health. For many people though, nature is not an important part of their lives.
In a study done by the National Trust and Derby University they found that only 19% of children regularly notice wildlife, 57% of adults rarely or never watched the sunrise in the last year and only 27% of people regularly watched the clouds.
All of these activities are completely free and have been shown to make us feel good so the question is, how can we improve our relationship and connectedness to nature?
Here is a link to the research that this episode is based on, I would highly recommend taking the time to read it as there is so much useful information in there: https://nt.global.ssl.fastly.net/documents/noticing-nature-report-feb-2020.pdf
