About Us

Reconnecting with nature

Spending time outdoors and connecting to nature is good for your health. Not just good, but essential. If you're feeling burnt out, stressed, overwhelmed and generally tired out, you'll be surprised how much better you can feel if you spend a bit of time in a woodland. Nature connection is part of a holistic approach to health and management of illness. 

​

So many aspects of modern life are stressful; whether it's having lots of responsibilities and not much support, money worries and living in a debt based economy, or being stuck at a desk and a screen all day. (We blame capitalism A LOT). 

​

We believe that the human body co-evolved with the natural world and that modern life has removed us from this aspect of ourselves. Now, more than ever, we need to reconnect with nature. And we're here to help you do that.

​

At Woodland + Well we facilitate woodland walks, forest bathing and nature connection activities to boost your mood, raise your spirit and help you to feel a bit better.
