The CRAM Podcast ~ Extraordinary Ideas Unleashed
Here’s an incredibly simple strategy for wellbeing!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It’s not too often I come across research that’s this simple AND effective – according to the evidence.
Based on the results of a number of studies, this simple strategy can elevate your mood, make you feel connected, happier… and even give greater meaning to your life. You can do it almost anywhere and maybe best of all, it doesn’t add any significant time to your day.
The strategy is called “Noticing Nature.” And the researcher behind it is Psychologist Holli-Anne Passmore. Try this practice and see if it works for you!
