Check out the webinar recording on Nature, Mental Health and Tech with the fantastic Nature Fix and Nature Quant.

Our top 5 takeaways:

To get more people outside more often we need all hands on deck! Doctors, mental health professionals, employers, policymakers, and academics must work across silos to encourage innovation and support best practices.

It's not just contact with nature, it's the nature of the contact experience. The effort of your directed attention informs the quality of that experience.

Apps like NatureDose can “nudge” you to go outside — and encourage gamification, like a step-counter for nature. Apps like NatureFix can optimise that same time outside through targeted interventions to improve engagement and mindfulness.

Ultimately, by enhancing nature connection we can promote pro-environmental behaviours, benefiting people and planet.

To get more people outside more often we need all hands on deck! Doctors, mental health professionals, employers, policymakers, and academics must work across silos to encourage innovation and support best practices.

It is easy to write off time in nature where technology is present. But in a world that’s locked into screens, reigniting the flame of our intrinsic love and need for nature may require technology. Hosted by the Platform's Community Ambassadors Shirley Gleeson (NBS for Health and Wellbeing) and Dr. Nadina Galle (Smart Tech for NBS), this 1-hour interactive webinar explores the intersection of nature, mental health, and technology.

They will be joined by front-running innovators in the field including Dr. Matthew Zylstra from NatureFix, an app providing geolocated, nature-based wellness routines, and Jared Hanley, founder and CEO of NatureQuant, the makers of NatureDose™, the leading personalized nature prescription app which monitors your time inside, outside, and exposed to nature.

Together, we explore how technology can help make nature exposure a daily practice for a longer, healthier, and even happier life.

Nádúr's Managing Director is delighted to be co- hosting this webinar as part of the Connecting Nature Enterprise Platform NBS Ambassador series.
