Wellbeing in the Wild

In a world that rarely slows down, reconnecting with nature can be a powerful way to reset both mind and body. Andrew Thomas Price’s wellbeing walks offer a chance to step away from noise and distraction, replacing it with space, stillness and a deeper awareness of the natural world around you.

Wellbeing Through Movement and Nature

Since 2020 Dryad Bushcraft has focused on social prescribing and using the skills of wilderness survival as a tool to improve mental health and wellbeing. Andrew has designed a range of wellbeing focused courses and activities that inspire creativity, resilience and co-operation

Mindfulness doesn’t have to mean sitting still or clearing your mind completely. For many people, it begins outdoors — with movement, fresh air and a renewed connection to the landscape. Andrew’s guided mindfulness walks are designed to help you slow your pace, tune into your surroundings and experience nature in a more meaningful way.

Drawing on years of experience working in wild and remote environments, Andrew leads small, guided walks that encourage presence and awareness through simple, practical techniques. Participants are invited to notice the rhythm of walking, the sounds of the landscape, changes in light and weather, and the subtle details often missed in everyday life. There is no pressure to talk, perform or “get it right” — just time and space to be.
