  • Episode 140: The Nature Fix
    Jul 4 2024
    This episode is brought to you by Sal Valencia III, Financial Advisor with Edward Jones Does proximity to greenspace affect our health in a positive way? Why is being in a natural space restorative to some of us and not others? Is there a healthy dose of nature that we could take on a schedule? Florence Williams has written a wonderful book, NATURE FIX: Why Nature Makes Us Happier. Healthier, and More Creative (2017). She explores what we are learning about our relationship with nature from scientific investigation. Eleanor and Kristen reflect on her recommendations and share our experiences. Tim even “chirps” in with his interesting perspective. We liked this book and think it is worth a read. We would appreciate it if you would subscribe/follow the podcast to hear more about this book!

    Jun 20 2024
    This episode is brought to you by Sal Valencia III, Financial Advisor with Edward Jones Do you ever think if you could control your thoughts a little more, you’d be happier? Perhaps positive thinking is the key? Russ Harris has written an interactive book, THE HAPPINESS TRAP: How to Stop Struggling and Start Living (2nd Ed 2022), in which he challenges common ideas about happiness and provides several activities to help you live the life you want. He advocates for Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and his book is a guide to that practice. Kristen and Eleanor were unfamiliar with this approach to reducing stress, but they enjoyed their morning chat exploring Harris’ ideas. Listen in to hear their takeaways!
