Take some time out for yourself to cultivate curiosity and deepen your connection with the natural world through the practice of nature journaling.
Through observation and wonder, nature journaling allows you to express creativity using words, pictures and numbers. You will develop a nourishing connection with nature which is known to improve physical and mental wellbeing. Nature journaling encourages a growth mindset by forming new neural pathways through learning new skills and rewiring the brain.
