Reflecting on nature's unknowable and mysterious qualities, Grounded explores how we can therapeutically benefit from a deeper connection with nature, finding within it balance, stillness, solitude, resilience, contentment, activity, fearlessness - and our own wild voice.

Within this book, you will discover:

* Movement exercises to connect with the physical world
* Work-life rebalancing
* Nature study and eco-therapies
