The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative Free Audiobook Download by Florence Williams


Florence Williams, a Californian author and journalist, poses a question: What if we actually got the rewards of being outside? The Nature Fix is her answer to that question. The book starts with a simple premise: in order to be happy and healthy you need access to nature. If you live in a city or even on a wealthy suburb in an otherwise natural environment, you're missing out on the full benefits of being outdoors, which include creativity and deep relaxation.

The Nature Fix is a book about how nature can affect us when we're not in nature, and what we can do as a result of that. Florence Williams argues that being surrounded by natural elements (whether it be trees, plants, waterfalls or any other aspect of nature) has an influence on our mental state. She argues that people in non-urban environments are more creative, happier and healthier than those who live urban environments. The narration by Emily Woo Zeller is conversational and engaging.

The Nature Fix by Florence Williams tells the story of nature's benefits to humans. The author explains how our ancestors evolved to be more and more dependent on natural resources for survival. We are then forced to live in a very unnatural way, continually moving from one point to another and looking after ourselves. This leads to a lack of connection with the world around us and disconnects us from certain aspects of our own humanity.

"Nature is not just for people who live in canyons or ranch houses that overlook pine forests. Here, nature means rewilding our cities, unplugging from screens and reconnecting with real life again." This audiobook gives listeners a look into the benefits of spending time outside.

Florence Williams has spent her whole life in and around nature. She was raised on a farm by her parents for whom the natural world served as the basis of life. Florence, who is now a professor of biology at Tufts University and an author and speaker, shares her passion for nature with her readers in The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative.

The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative by Florence Williams is an easy to read and informative book about the benefits of nature.
