I'm very excited this month to begin my next chapter of forest bathing training with Sonya Dibbin at Adore Your Outdoors..

In recent years, more people have been searching for natural ways to improve their mental health and wellbeing.

As stress, anxiety, and burnout continue to rise, combining evidence-based psychology with the healing benefits of nature is becoming increasingly popular.

One powerful approach is eco-therapy, particularly through integrating Forest bathing with Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT).

This nature-based approach offers a grounded, accessible way to support emotional resilience, stress reduction, and long-term wellbeing.

If you'd like to read more about this then you can visit my blog on my website - link in bio. I'm sure I'll be posting more about this once I've completed the training.

Which therapy is the right one for me?

If you are living with anxiety, you are not alone. Millions of people experience anxiety in some way from racing thoughts, restlessness, worry, panic, or the feeling that your mind won’t “switch off.”

And while anxiety can feel overwhelming, there are a wide range of wellbeing approaches that can help.

But with so many options, how do you choose the right one?

My posts this month have been about a variety of approaches that can support you and your wellbeing. This is definitely not an exhaustive list to wellbeing approaches, so it is essential that you research your chosen approach to see if it fits your needs.

These are alternative activities and therapies that support recovery from anxiety and stress.

These are not therapy in the traditional sense but powerful partners to it.

Highly recommend researching the approach you are interested in, and be open to try it.

With therapy, lifestyle care, and a bit of curiosity, change is absolutely possible.

You don’t have to figure it out alone, there is an approach that fits you.

Medication and therapy:

Best for: Moderate to severe anxiety or when therapy alone isn’t enough

Medication isn’t “cheating”—for many people, it creates the breathing room needed to participate in therapy effectively.

Try it if: Your symptoms are interfering with work, relationships, or sleep.

Speak to your GP for recommendations and a monitored approach to medication.

Research consistently shows the relationship between you and your therapist matters as much as the technique.

I would recommend you look for someone who makes you feel:
✨ Understood
✨ Safe
✨ Respected

You can interview therapists until you find the right fit, and also try approaches until you find something that feels right.

Also research the therapy you are interested in and make sure you check with accrediting bodies to find a therapist that is registered and approved in their field.

Anxiety, stress, depression or struggling with overwhelm does not mean that you are broken, it means your mind and body are asking for support.

Just as important as the type of therapy, is to also find the right therapist.
