Text your thoughts and questions!
Biophilic design is an incredible way to restore focus, enhance productivity and creativity, reduce stress, and improve overall wellness. The good news is, you may already be using it without even realizing it. Kasey Riley joins us today to share how this type of design, indicating a “love of life,” brings nature indoors and has a myriad of benefits. This week, episode 204 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about why bringing nature inside will help you focus better!
Kasey Riley is the Co-Founder and CMO of The Fat Plant Society, a biophilic design studio creating green walls and biophilic designs from real moss that doesn’t require watering or misting. They create with moss from American forests that’s hand-harvested with respect for the plant and its surroundings. Kasey and her husband Morten Klinte turned their love of all things green into a business that enhances interiors and the wellness of those who inhabit it.
In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, Kasey shares the incredible benefits that come with going out into nature and alternatively, bringing nature inside. She gives actionable steps you can take right now to incorporate biophilic design into your home.
Kasey and I cover the following topics:
- The threads of history that show us how humans have always had an affinity to nature and a psychological pull to appreciate other forms of life.
- Scientifically proven mental health and cognitive benefits of being exposed to nature.
- Dormant moss as a low expense, low maintenance way to bring nature into your home.
We often underestimate the benefits of nature, but this conversation is a beautiful reminder of how we can use what is around us to increase our overall well-being.
