Looking to nature for wellbeing

Looking to nature for wellbeing

Being outside and enjoying green spaces and fresh air feels good and can improve our mental health .I certainly feel better after a nature walk but it's hard to get there.

Maybe we need a virtual space to share information and experiences

Here's a start :

@Healandlove SNOOT! PUPPY SNOOT! LOVE! 😍😍

@Harmonium That's a bit frustrating for sure! Hmm just as an idea, you could try uploading to an image hosting site (like imgur.com) and then grab the URL and use that to upload the pic? Or google some photo compression websites, they're usually free and can change the file size for ya.

@Harmonium have you tried editing your photo to resize it? When I open a picture in my gallery I have the option to resize it by going to editing mode. That works for me to be able to post pics here. Do you have such an option?

Hi @Healandlove Photos sometimes post and sometimes not - don’t know why. Same phone so… I’m on an iPhone 15 Pro so... I’m going to try texting the troublesome photo to myself as maybe it will reduce the file size.


Nope, that didn’t work either.

I still get this orange 🍊 message:
