"Friluftsliv" is what Swedish people do
outside all day
before they
cuddle up in front of the fireplace with their wool socks on and a
cup of hot chocolate. It's also the subject of the terrific new
book
The Open-Air
Life written by Write About Now guest Linda Akeson Mcgurk.
From walking barefoot around the neighborhood to foraging for
mushrooms, Mcgurk talks about why and how we should spend more time
outside and how
friluftsliv can combat stress, anxiety
disorders, depression, and burnout. Even if you're not the
outdoorsy type, you'll find this interview a nice anecdote
to our frantic, plugged-in society.
