In this episode, Kirsten sits down with Dr. Alister Clay, an engineer at Bosch with a fascinating journey into psychology and nature. Alister shares how his personal experiences led him to pursue a degree in psychology and focus on how humans connect to nature. They delve into the Biophilia Hypothesis, which suggests that humans have an innate need to connect with nature, and how this connection impacts well-being.

Through the lens of psychology, Alister explores how fostering a deeper relationship with the natural world, particularly through observing pollinators like bees, can improve mental health and resilience. Alister also introduces the concept of nature connectedness pathways, highlighting how compassion, senses, and meaning can deepen our bond with the environment. His research examines how even small interactions with nature, like watching a bee pollinate a flower, can have profound effects on our mental well-being.

Tune in to discover how rethinking our relationship with nature can offer simple yet powerful ways to enhance personal growth and global sustainability.
