Increasing workload, nervous tension, trouble sleeping? Wondering whether there is more to life? This is not a mid-life crisis. Like so many others, you are feeling the call of the wild.

Today's urban living makes it easy to feel divorced from nature. This practical book is crammed with 52 varied activities to get you out and about whatever the weather. Featuring a combination of creative, culinary, herbal and mindful activities, with nature at their heart, you'll be surprised how much there is to find on your doorstep when you know where to look.

Organised by month, Urban Wild's simple, seasonal step-by-step activities open the door to nature in urban and suburban landscapes to help you increase your potential for health and wellbeing. We already live in the Garden of Eden, warts and all, when we know where to find it.
