Modern life can be mentally exhausting. Turbulent politics, cost of living, insecure work, technological change, endless conflicts, climate change - the list of things beyond our control feels endless.

Escaping online can end up being a tortuous and repetitive loop that only reinforces our anxiety. 

So how can we rise above it all and make sense of our world?

Some find solace in their faith. But for many of us, religion is just another past we have escaped from.

There is a deeper answer: Nature. The best therapy there is.

The natural world was here aeons before us - and will be for aeons after us. Yet we are also an indivisible part of it. We just need to return to it from time to time. 

Reconnecting with Nature has never been more vital for our sanity. It rekindles our energy, calms our scrambled brains and returns us the present moment, helping us to appreciate our place in the cosmos.   

Luckily, Nature has many top therapists: mountains, forests, rivers, seas, wilderness. These sacred living ecosystems, constant yet perpetually changing, offer us perspective and renewal.

They allow us to embrace our authentic selves, see the timeless beauty around us and fall back in love with the world.
