SUMMARY:David Hawke “Nature As Cure”
DESCRIPTION:David Hawke “Nature As Cure” \nDo you find yourself feeling depressed at the endless anti-environmental antics of politicians and developers? You are not alone. However\, this presentation asks us to collectively pause and take a moment to rediscover the beauty of Nature. It is indeed a changing world and we have to find ways to cope… perhaps a moment to reflect on the natural beauty of the out-of-doors will help.
