Regular Nature Connection boosts health, relaxes the mind and lifts the spirit. Many of us feel this intuitively and instinctively. Now new nature-based science is proving it.

“Pay it Forward Wellbeing Walks”.
How “pay it forward” works. – Starting this year (2023) my first Cotswold Natural Mindfulness Introductory Walks will be free to attend. At the end of teach walk participants are invited to donate towards a place on a future walk. In other words ‘gift a place’ to someone on the next walk- “pay it forward”. There is lots of strong evidence to suggest that random acts of kindness like ‘paying it forward’ can boost our well-being and create a natural feel-good state of being. There are also many people who could really benefit from a wellbeing walk, but in the current economic climate wouldn’t even consider it. I feel this approach aligns beautifully with Natural Mindfulness well-being walks. Learn More about Gifting walks.
