In this broad-ranging conversation, Katie and her guest Dr. Nate Charach, a Toronto-based psychiatrist, discuss the gardening benefits for wellbeing. Nate explains how he uses gardening in his practice, and speaks about how important it is for people to reconnect to nature.
Katie and Nate talk about how growing things helps us understand seasonality and the life’s natural pace, and Nate describes how climate change, sadness and grief are intertwined.
From Nate, we learn that a useful way to begin to deal with eco-anxiety is to first allow ourselves to feel sad about climate change, and suggests it can help to become more aware of what is working and changing for the good (rather than focusing on what isn’t working).
Does gardening help you deal with climate anxiety? Let us know in the comments below.

Gardenstead is an online gardening community and plant lovers channel of gardeners who love to get their hands dirty, both indoors and outdoors. Our gardeners run the gamut. They are vegetable gardeners, houseplant nurturers, small space gardening engineers, herbalists, flower enthusiasts and succulent aficionados.
Our goal has always been to connect gardeners in an inclusive gardening community, foster and share knowledge, and make gardening resources available to everyone.
As we grow, we seek to expand our conversations about gardening and to
cultivate a mindful embrace of nature and the healing and grounding properties
to be found in it.
Plants cultivate connections between people — from urban settings of balcony gardens
and small spaces to rural backyards with larger and more expansive gardens. We hope
you’ll join us as we continue to nurture these connections and create new ones.
