Return To Our Roots
Connecting with nature is more than a walk through the woods. It’s about being conscious of seasonal changes, becoming attuned with the plants around us, and relearning the nature-language we’ve forgotten through our modern lives. We believe that incorporating the “old ways” of doing things, growing and harvesting our own food, and having a do-it-yourself spirit, promotes self-sufficiency and is an important part of leading a healthier lifestyle, closer to nature.
We hope to provide you with a foundation to rewild yourself through aligning with the cycles of the seasons and to help you in discovering the energies of the seasonal cycles.
It’s no secret that being in nature is good for the mind and body. We believe the healthiest way to live is often the closest to nature, the simplest, the most practical, and promote a sustainable and lasting connection to our natural world. At the Outdoor Apotheca, we believe that connecting and re-connecting with nature can help to lead a more balanced life. So, take a breath, take a walk in the woods, and re-connect. We promise you won’t regret it.

How Do You Connect With Nature?
Spend time in nature. It has been revealed in scientific studies thay solitary activities like spending time in nature, fishing, or exploring outside are key to building strong bonds between people and nature.
Nature connection is all about getting outside to explore a natural setting with your own basic sensory awareness & observation skills. In a technology-driven world, most people are only using a very small portion of their total capacity to sense and perceive what’s happening in their surroundings.
In addition to developing your connection, you should endeavor to utilize herbs and adopt an herbal self-care practice for all-around health and wellness.
