Presentation: Outdoor Health Forum: Nature Connection and Mental Wellbeing

October 18, 2025 — Lennox Heads, NSW

Br. Tenzin represented yatra.org.au at this forum hosted by Outdoor Health Australia, the peak body supporting health, healing and resilience through outdoor and nature-based practice. Alongside sessions on indigenous youth work, therapeutic surfing, equine therapy and outdoor education, he facilitated a “sacred journey” workshop condensing an 8-day yatra retreat into one hour — mindful movement, breathwork, and a silent beach walk.

Follow-up

The full write-up is on Gaia Forest, including his reflections on the value of non-cognitive, listening-based engagement with nature.
