Book excerpt: In 2016, Isabel Hardman's mind "stopped working" as she fell prey to severe depression and anxiety. She took long-term sick leave and, despite several relapses, has returned to work with a much-improved ability to cope, having since become one of the UK's most prominent public voices on mental health. She credits her better health to her passion for exercise, nature and the great outdoors - from horse-riding and botany to cold-water swimming and running. In THE NATURAL HEALTH SERVICE, Hardman draws on her own personal experience, interviews with mental illness sufferers and psychologists, and the latest research to examine what role wildlife and exercise can play in helping anyone cope with mental illness. Straight-talking, thoroughly researched, and compassionate, this important and often funny book will fascinate anyone touched by a mental health condition.
