Step into Nature

Slow down, get away from it all, connect with nature and improve your mental health.


Activity description

​If you’re feeling overwhelmed or exhausted, or you’re struggling with your mental health, Step into Nature offers a gentle way to reconnect - with yourself and the natural world around you. This free eight-week course is designed to help you find moments of peace, breathe a little easier, and rediscover a sense of calm through the healing power of nature. There’s no pressure - just a chance to slow down, explore a beautiful outdoor space at your own pace, and take part in simple, fulfilling activities. You’ll have the opportunity to learn new skills, meet supportive people, and experience the quiet yet powerful benefits of spending time in nature. Many who join us say they leave feeling lighter, more peaceful, and more motivated. Along the way, you can also gain practical outdoor skills, contribute to wildlife conservation, and even build experience that might help with future work or voluntary opportunities. If you’re looking for something to help you feel a little more like yourself again - why not give it a try? It’s free to attend but please get in touch to book your place as spaces are limited. Call us on 01963 31842 or email info@balsamcentre.org.uk. Transport is provided from The Balsam Centre.
