In this episode of Resiliency Redefined, Dr. Robyne explores the deeply restorative effects of nature on our mental health and overall well-being. She unpacks the science behind how stepping outside—and escaping a world of 90-degree angles—can lower stress hormones, boost mood, and spark creativity. From morning sunlight and birdsong to the calming rhythm of water and the mesmerizing patterns of fractals, she highlights subtle yet powerful ways nature can help soothe and regulate our nervous systems.

While time outdoors isn’t a cure-all, this episode is a gentle reminder: you’re just one moment in nature away from feeling better.
