The benefits of engaging with nature for our social, cognitive, and physical well-being are extensively documented. However, the question arises: how feasible is it to incorporate nature into therapy or bring therapy into nature? This evidence-based and accessible guide offers practical strategies for integrating nature into therapy, featuring simple and enjoyable ready-to-go activity ideas. By utilizing the life-course framework, the authors emphasize the significance of nature across different stages of human development, from young children to older adults. Outdoor therapy is accessible to everyone, and various therapeutic offerings can be tailored to suit individuals and groups. Resources are provided to assess a program's readiness to incorporate nature, develop plans for outdoor therapy sessions (or bringing the outdoors in), and evaluate the potential impact on patients or clients.
Testimonials from service users who have experienced the benefits of nature-based practices and case studies showcasing excellence in practice from health and social care professionals across various fields are included in this book. It aims to inspire and empower allied health and mental health practitioners to take their therapy practice outdoors, fostering a holistic and transformative approach to well-being.
