The outdoors and mental health

Spending time in nature has long been known to support our physical and mental wellbeing. Even brief visits to green spaces can reduce stress, ease anxiety and help us feel more grounded. Research shows we’re innately drawn to natural environments, with time outdoors lowering blood pressure, calming the mind, and improving mood.

Walk ’n’ Talk counselling brings these benefits into therapy. Instead of sitting within four walls, sessions take place in nature—walking or sitting outdoors—offering a calming, less formal space to talk, reflect and heal.
