- It is Mental Health Awareness this week and the theme this year is ‘Nature’ which I think is absolutely perfect and very relevant right now. In this video I am sharing with you how a sensory walk in nature can help improve your overall wellbeing.
Mentioned in this video;
↠ Ordnance Survey inspired this video after I read they had teamed up with the national charity Sense to support their work on a programme of sensory walks;

Beautiful video mary,
Thank you..
Many thanks James! I am glad you liked it ☺️
Beautiful park. Thank you for your continued smile. I find that a walk in the woods brings a joy that linger long after the walk. Blessings
That is so very true 😊
Wonderful video Mary! Hiking using all your senses...sight, touch, hearing, taste and smell makes the experience that much more memorable. "Nature" is the perfect theme for Mental Health Awareness. Vis medicatrix naturae
You’re such a good influence on the planet Mary. Thank you for creating content that is relevant and healing.🌿
I’m so pleased you liked it, thanks so much 💚
Beautiful video! I have always known how much better I felt after being in the forest. Now I know why! Best!
Watching your great videos and listening to your soothing voice is good for mental health 🧠❤️
Thank you ☺️
I loved the idea of video! Beside pictures and narration😊
The most beautiful video and message! This should be on NatGeo for sure! Shot, edited and narrated amazingly, you are such a natural 💚 Like you I’ve been doing so many of these things for years without knowing that it had a name, and after watching this I was even more mindful just on the walk around town this morning listening to the birds, enjoying the flowers and bees, the vibrant greens of the grass in the park 👍🏻💚💚💚 thank you!
That means so much to me - thank you so very much. Your support really is wonderful ☺️💚
Excellent video. I do something similar that i call "Dream Walks" where, as i hike, i observe the sights, scents, sounds, and sensations around me and consider their symbolic meaning. In other words, I ask myself, "If this were a dream, what would such and such symbolize to me?" A tree might stand for strength or wisdom, growing old, or starting again. The wind might call to mind the voice of the Spirit. The path might remind me of my own journey along the road of life. Meditating on these symbols gives me thoughts to pray over and puts me in touch with what's going on inside me - the sadness, the joys, the struggles, and the overcoming. I find such walks to be very soul-cleansing. The woods become a confessional, where mistakes are left on the side of the trail, the climb to the summit a metaphor for my own journey of renewal. I love the idea of mindfulness and experiencing the moment that you talked about. Such a pleasant and peaceful approach to how you share your insights and your journey with others. Thank you!
I like what you explain as Dream Walks, it really does make a huge difference connecting to nature this way. Thanks for taking the time to comment Mark!
After watching this I realised I have been doing sensory walks without knowing it. Lovely film. Great way of explaining our relationship with nature and wellness.
Thank you so much 😊
I've done this in one form or another, I think, since I was a teenager. I love taking time out of time in nature, and when you combine the intense sensory observation with a kinetic activity like walking or running, it really reboots your body and your outlook. This is a fascinating topic -- thanks for bringing it to the fore and devoting a vlog to it.
Thank you John 😊
Nice video , how so much more enjoyable is a walk when one is mindful of the present moment 👍🏻
Thank you 😊
Brilliant video and great advice 👍
How soothing. Too often we're on a mission to walk from A to B...getting those 'steps' in when all it takes, is to stay awhile and reap the benefits. Thank you Mary X

Thanks for sharing, very interesting. I’ve been meaning to record sound when I walk. This video has prompted me, thanks ♥️
Thank you! It was nice to be able without the wind causing havoc on the microphones😄
That was a nice essay!
That was a great video, sure to help many. Good job.
Much appreciated - thank you!
I have just done a 15 mile hike and all I could smell was the relentless odour of chemicals the farmers are spraying on the crops at the moment.( I live in an intensive arable farming area). I reckon 100 years ago the natural smells of the countryside must have been so nice compared to the factory farm smells of today!
Thats such a shame Tim 😞
Hi Mary, are this thought will be added on your book? I think, you may because, they are so beautiful and piece.

Mato 🌳😁 🐦 Did Mary already know about Sabiá Laranjeira? Ah! that's the question, birds in Brazil and the Amazon are weeds. Mary has many miles of Sabrina-like travel in the bush 🌴🥦 wooo Oh My God, Miles of travel is overgrown
