Nourish Wellness Series – The Nature of Well Being
In this insightful and grounding session, Monica Sander Burns—founder of Society of Trees and certified Forest Therapy Guide—explores the profound connection between human health and the natural world. Drawing on decades of research and her own experience guiding immersive nature-based practices, Monica brings both science and lived wisdom to the conversation.
You’ll discover the growing body of evidence behind nature’s impact on reducing stress, regulating the nervous system, and supporting overall mental and physical health. Beyond the science, Monica invites you to consider the deeper relationship between personal wellbeing and the health of the ecosystems we’re part of.
This session also offers simple, practical ways to integrate nature into your daily life—through mindfulness, attention, and intentional connection—so you can access its benefits long after the experience ends.
Informative, inspiring, and deeply relevant, this talk is an invitation to reconnect—with nature, and with yourself.
