EP218: 'Prioritize Nature, Reclaim Childhood, & Experience a Fuller Life' [1000 Hours Outside] with Ginny Yurich
As parents and teachers, one of the most beneficial things we can do is to allow our children to play outside - for hours on end. The concept is simple. The execution is harder. The impact is tremendous. Join me today for a conversation with founder of the global movement, 1000 Hours Outside, Ginny Yurich. Ginny joined me back on episode 184 to discuss quick tips for getting outside and today she is here to share all about the benefits of getting into nature, the impacts on physical and emotional wellbeing, where to start, plus a whole lot more.
