Episode Synopsis "S1 E16 - Heather's healing nature journey"

This week I’m talking to Heather about the power of nature to heal us, messy gardens, veg patches, the community of community gardening, getting comfortable with silence and making nature connection a habit which is good for the soul.  We talk about connecting in a physical way too, to the walking or the feel of the soil, to the exercise, which are so good for our bodies too - although the two are of course connected.  We recorded out chat over zoom, so you will hear some variation in the sound quality. Many thanks to Heather for joining me and sharing some personal insights, and I hope that our discussion inspires you to let your garden grow a little bit wild(er), and to connect with nature wherever and whenever you can. As Heather said - “nature is the route to happiness”.
