Healing Through Nature: Leaf Weigel on Eco-Grief and Mental Wellness
“For health for us, we have to have health for our planet. But just to notice in witnessing here is a seed here it opens.”
Ever feel like the concrete jungle is swallowing you whole? In this episode of Tales of Recovery, Gris Alves sits down with Leaf Weigel, a musician, author, and music therapist, to discuss the concept of Eco-Grief and our deep-rooted need to reconnect with nature. Leaf opens up about their own struggles with depression after moving to the city for college, feeling the weight of urban life pulling them down.
They share their transformative journey back to mental wellness, which involved retreating to the mountains and immersing themselves in the natural world. The conversation is a heartfelt exploration of how our disconnection from nature contributes to our collective unease and what we can do to heal. Leaf's story is a powerful reminder of the healing power of nature and the importance of slowing down in our fast-paced, capitalist society.
Tune in for an inspiring discussion that might just make you want to take a walk in the woods.
