As a wellbeing writer of over 20 years, it is glaringly obvious to me that we are no longer living in alignment with who we are. Obesity is at an all-time high, as is anxiety, depression and chronic disease. We spend less time in nature; spend all day hunched over laptops; we snack all day and don’t allow the sun to warm our skin.

WAYS TO FEEL MORE HUMAN is about coming home to the wonder of ourselves.
