EP-228 NATURE AS MEDICINE: Microdoses, Macrodoses, and Daily Wellbeing

What if the best prescription for better health isn’t found in a bottle, but just outside your front door? In this episode of the 10Adventures Podcast, Richard speaks with Professor Jay Maddock, a global leader in the science of nature and health. Jay shares fascinating research on how spending time outdoors — whether it’s a quick 10-minute break in a park or a weekend in the wilderness — restores our attention, reduces stress, improves creativity, strengthens the immune system, and even speeds recovery in hospitals. From the importance of getting children outdoors to why doctors and even the military are prescribing time in nature, this episode is packed with evidence and inspiration to make nature a daily part of life.
