Dilly Dally in Nature

05/11/2026

I have been taking life far too seriously lately and my mind, body and soul said enough is enough.

Being outside and connecting with nature can look like grabbing some chalk and playing a game. Yes I felt silly, yes I was by myself but I was having fun, moving the body, getting a bit creative, breathing in fresh air and laughing at my silly little self. I can’t tell you how good that felt.

Being outside can look so many different ways. A mindful walk is one way, playing hopscotch in your backyard is another. Both feel so good and neither one is better than the other.

Get creative and get outside however that looks because I know deep down you are a silly billy too!

Feeling all kinds of giddy wearing a handmade dilly dally shirt made by one of YOU.

Wearing this to facilitate a dilly dally session today and it brings me so much joy to wear something created by community.

It not only looks 💅slay💅 but holds memories of people being brave and coming together, giving something a go, getting crafty in nature, laughing, crying (not really but the amount of effort that went into this hand painted dilly dally brought about a few challenging emotions) and just having a delightful dilly dally of a time in the park together.

Thanks everyone who came it means the world! More sneak peaks of these handmade creations to come.

ILYAT - I love you (and trees)

Today I dilly dallied along the Birrarung at a story mapping workshop as part of Riverfest with Christina Renowden who’s doing her PHD on Human-River relationships with a focus on the Birrarung (Yarra) River. 💅slay💅

We sat, we noticed, we connected, we created and I got a lil messy as I decided to do mine on the ground. I feel nervous to share as I am no writer but courage doesn’t exist without fear so here I am giving it a go.

A few thoughts to accompany my little Birrarung story map! Also how cute are baby ducks 🥹

Check out RiverFest with Yarra Riverkeeper there are so many free events to connect with the Birrarung! If you want to share you love for the Birrarung I’d love to hear it in the comments 🫰

Rain is necessary and can be fun (and also at times very dangerous) but a healthy natural environment requires rain and it is important to remember that when the weather isn’t in line with what we want to do for the day.

Like this bird who is taking this opportunity to have a bath how can you celebrate the rain today?

This has been right in front of me and it brought me so much joy! The more I notice about nature the more I remember how much goodness is still in this world.

I would love to know what you have been noticing ✨
