Thinking about you

As you may have noticed, I can't stop thinking of you and I keep preparing things for you (posts, exercises, exams...). This is a most common feeling among people who love each other as in the case of Lagertha and Ragnar in the series Vikings.

 

 

Here's my musical hint for today: Skin by Rag'n Bone Man used in the series of Vikings and here are the lyrics for you to learn about what the singer really means.

NATURE could be the solution

Ecotherapy could be the solution to some mental illnesses, especially in this stressful world we live. Have you ever tried going for a walk in the rain, or in the forest? How do you feel later? Can you have any negative feelings after such an experience.

 

What is ecotherapy?

 

Here are some articles for you to read about the issue:

• Ecotherapy: how does the great outdoors improve mental health? (The Guardian)

• Could ‘nature healing’ be part of the future of treatment? (the On the line org)

• Ecotherapy: why plants are the latest treatment for depression and anxiety (The Guardian)

And now listen to a podcast and do the listening exercise:

• Eco-therapy (BBC News)

• The calming power of nature  (6 Minute English, BBC Learning English)
