SAD and how getting out to see nature can help
by Ian Stephens | October 26, 2025 | Related articles | 0 Comments
I am deeply proud that what began as a personal commitment has become something that inspires and cheers others. And the best part? It’s accessible to anyone. You don’t need an expensive camera or far-flung travels to experience the same benefits. All you need is curiosity, a willingness to pause, and maybe a smartphone in your pocket.

pAckaging
Please note I will be sending books out from home and I am keen to reuse any packaging, so that deliveries can be a bit more sustainable. Apologies in advance if you wonder why your parcel may be in a 2nd hand wrapping.
Thank you.
Opening Hours
Because my book business isn’t my main focus for work and is hopefully a way of making a bit of extra money for my charities, any messages and orders I receive may get to me at funny times, so please be patient.
I will get back to you as soon as I can.
