About this listen

 Joe Harkness, author of the acclaimed Bird Therapy, investigates the connections between nature and neurodiversity

Time in nature supports our wellbeing. For people who are neurodivergent, it can also stimulate our senses, feed our curiosity and help us find others with the same deep interests. But why do natural environments have such profound effects? If children with autism, ADHD and other neurodivergences spend more time outdoors, could it improve their educational experiences and outcomes? And if they nurture nature connections into adulthood, could this form the roots of their identities?

After receiving an ADHD diagnosis in his thirties, Joe began to question whether his bond with nature was intrinsic to his neurodivergence or something developed through his life choices. Keen to know more, he connected with other neurodivergent people who share his passion for nature.

Threading their stories with his own, Joe explores why they chose to seek diagnosis, the ways they find solace and understanding through nature, and what led many of them into nature-related careers. He describes the barriers they face in education and employment and the adjustments that can ensure they thrive in a world designed for neurotypical brains.

With honesty and humour, Joe highlights the creativity, skills and passion that can benefit communities, schools and workplaces when neurodiversity is welcomed and supported in all its forms.©2025 Joe Harkness (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc People with Disabilities
