Healing Through Nature and Adventure with Ruth O’Meara
Manage episode 510670910 series 3661800
In this episode of The Mindful Journey Podcast, host Sana sits down with Ruth O’Meara, founder of Leafy Green Tours, to explore how nature, adventure, and mindful living can become powerful tools for healing. Ruth shares her journey from a decade in international sales to becoming a hiking guide and surf instructor, and how stepping outdoors can bring peace, perspective, and self-discovery. From Irish surf breaks to simple mindful walks in the city, this conversation reminds us that healing doesn’t always come from stillness—it often comes from movement, adventure, and connecting with the natural world.
About the Guest:Ruth O’Meara is the founder of Leafy Green Tours, offering small group experiences that blend nature, culture, and wellness. Based in Ireland, Ruth is a hiking guide and surf instructor who helps people reconnect with themselves through mindful outdoor adventures. Her work inspires people to slow down, live intentionally, and find healing in the simplicity of nature.
Key Takeaways:Nature offers innate healing—whether it’s a forest walk, surfing, or sitting under a tree.
Adventure builds resilience, confidence, and self-trust by pushing us beyond our comfort zones.
Surfing taught Ruth that we can’t control everything—nature humbles us and teaches flexibility.
Even in cities, we can access “micro-moments” of nature through parks, balconies, plants, or mindful walks.
Adventure should be intentional, rooted in peace and joy—not used as an escape from life.
Healing is amplified in community—shared group experiences bring connection and collective calm.
Simple practices like taking breaks from screens, setting mindful intentions, and choosing slow living create lasting inner peace.
