WALKING IN NATURE
Walking in nature helped me to process my emotions and make sense of what I was feeling.
It was what helped me ‘find my way back to me’
​Walking in nature and having at least one good friend were the support mechanisms that enabled me to move and embrace change, when I was pushed to my limits.​
​
Each of these elements delivers great benefits.
​
-
Walking in nature is good for the spirit. Science has shown that walking lifts the mood, boosts energy and enhances focus.
-
Friendship brings connection and belonging and helps to lower stress. For those who are abused, having a good friend provides you with a different perspective and helps you to build confidence and self-belief.
​
Walking in nature with friends showed me that I was worthy of being treated with respect and supported me to keep going.
​
This is something I believe to be of benefit to anyone who trying to process their emotions and change their situation.
