You’ll notice I write A LOT about nature. There’s a reason why.

In 2012, I read a blog post that shared the physical and emotional benefits of being outside in fresh open air. The post was moving and convincing. At the end of the post, the author challenged to go outside for five minutes, that it could change my life. That was it. Just five minutes.

Those five minutes did indeed change my life and the lives of my children as well.
