In this episode we go for a Scottish ecotherapy walk. We explore how we can use mindfulness to truly have fresh encounters with nature.
Those of you interested in forest bathing (otherwise known as shinrin-yoku), may be particularly interested in this episode. Today we go for a walk together in the South Esk Valley in Midlothian, Scotland. It’s a very green Scottish ecotherapy experience—I instantly started getting attacked by falling Autumnal pine cones! I encounter the calming sound of the running river, noisy crows, a worm-like pine tree and a little insect making its’ way through a world of moss. These kind of encounters are the most ordinary experiences that we can have as human beings. They also happen to be some of the most beautiful things we could possibly experience while we are alive.
