3: Nature Therapy & Forest Kindergarten: Letting Nature Lead with Emily Bryce

We hear it all the time: get outside more, it’s good for you! But what exactly does that mean? How can it actually benefit us and our children?

In this episode, my guest, Emily Bryce, sheds light on the tangible benefits of spending time in nature for both adults and children. Drawing from her experiences as a nature-based occupational therapist and the owner of a Forest Kindergarten, she explores the profound impact nature has on a child's development and well-being. The conversation covers practical ways for parents to seamlessly integrate outdoor activities into their daily routines. Beyond the outdoor focus, the discussion also touches on fundamental parenting principles, such as how to allow your child to feel seen and understood, and how to easily promote a change in their perspective regarding certain things. This episode highlights the importance of parents providing diverse outdoor experiences for their kids, ways for practicing mindful parenting and reevaluating how perspectives are instilled upon children.
