No Chill #13: Touch Grass, Save Your Brain: Our Wild Outdoor Confessions

No Chill #13: Touch Grass, Save Your Brain: Our Wild Outdoor Confessions

We explore our complicated relationship with the outdoors, sharing personal stories about camping, swimming fears, and the surprising psychological benefits of reconnecting with nature.

• Weekly “What If”: Could we survive a week completely offline in the wilderness?
 • Josh reveals he doesn’t know how to swim—and how that shaped his childhood
 • Stories from Spartan races, Mud Girl competitions, and pushing past comfort zones
 • Debate: Do humans still have survival instincts, or are we too far gone?
 • Hot takes like “the ocean is terrifying” and “hiking is just walking with extra effort”
 • This-or-that game with survival-style choices like “sunrise hike or midnight campfire”
 • Scientific fact: 10 seconds of birdsong can increase serotonin
 • Why even 5 minutes outside can boost your mental and physical health

🎧 Challenge: Step outside for at least five minutes today—even if it’s just to listen. It’s good for your brain.
