Nature Junkies are always listening when nature speaks. In this Microdose Nature episode of Nature Junkie Radio, we explore the fascinating Biophilia Hypothesis, which is our deep biological attraction to nature. Discover how you can tap into this invisible force and put it into practice daily. 

We’ll take a short walk through the history of the Biophilia Hypothesis, how Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson helped put the science on the map, and how you can start to apply it in your own life with simple techniques like “Noticing Nature.”
