Following the unprecedented proliferation of smartphones and technology, the phrase ‘Disconnect to Connect’ has been popularized to encourage individuals to put down their gadgets and connect with their loved ones. As we come to the end of this blog, I think it is fitting to say that we should perhaps move beyond the phrase’s focus on interpersonal relationships and towards one’s relationship with nature as well.

Being in nature brings about SO MANY benefits; disconnect from your smartphones and connect with nature today! Instead of texting back and forth, invite your friends and family out on a hike at one of the many nature trails Singapore has to offer. You will not only derive joy from being in the presence of your loved ones, but in the embrace of nature too! 😊
