THIS MONTH:<\/strong>

\nThe #ReWildYourLife challenge<\/a> is a self-paced challenge with activities designed to be completed over 30 days. Created by the We Are Wildness<\/a> group the challenge was intended as an antidote to “modern life” where we are so busy with to-do lists that keep us distracted and cut off from the natural world. Studies show the positive health benefits of spending time in the natural world including lowered stress, increased creativity, feelings of peace and an enhanced sense of wonder. The challenge activities are based around spending at least 30 minutes a day outside in a natural space, which is the perfect amount of time to to relax, calm your breathing and adjust your senses to the more subtle world of Nature…
