Embrace the Darkness: Episode 4

In this week’s episode, Elinor chats to Dr. Christopher Barnes, a chartered psychologist conducting and supervising doctoral research in the areas of parenting, child development and nature connection.

Following his own ‘dark skies epiphany’, Dr. Barnes began combining his academic research on child development and nature connectiveness with connectiveness to the night sky.

Together, Elinor and Dr. Barnes discuss the ‘Five Pathways’ to nature connectedness, with Dr. Barnes sharing fresh insights on recent studies to how our ability to see the night sky impacts our health and wellbeing.
