The result: deeper relationships and practical insights that can be acted on.

​Why the Great Outdoors is Good for Team Building

Research shows that nature stimulates your mind and body and is the great leveller - it lowers personal barriers and removes prejudices making it easier to connect with each other.
​
More positive effects of being in nature:
● dramatically improves creative thinking
● gives greater feelings of vitality​
● improves memory by up to 20%
● ​​affects growth and purpose
​
● relieves stress, lowers blood pressure and cortisol levels

How does it work?
