About Ecotherapy Cardiff
We aim to help bring ecotherapy to a wider audience, and help the people of Cardiff to reconnect with themselves and the natural world around them.
Ecotherapy Cardiff Description
The main premise of ecotherapy is that while today people are shaped by the modern social world, we are adapted to the natural environment in which we evolved. According to the biophilia hypothesis of biologist E. O. Wilson, human beings have an innate instinct to connect emotionally with nature.
It is thought that our disconnection from the natural world can adversely affect our mental health and well-being.
By reacquainting ourselves with nature, we can begin to alleviate these effects.
Ecotherapy Cardiff will bring together many strands of healthcare combined with principles of permaculture, sustainability and deep ecology, taking a multidisciplinary approach to helping you to improve your life.
