Loving Life in Wellies was created by me Chelsea as a personal blog in 2012, to document my story of a stressed out disconnected city girl, to a country-bumpkin wannabe craving a simpler & slower way of living. Over the years of experiencing ‘the good life’ I have reaped the benefits & now I’d like to share those with others who are seeking a mentally & physically healthier way of living.
Food for thought...
Ecotherapy is the name given to a variety of treatments that aims to improve physical & mental wellbeing through the use of activities involving the natural world. It’s a fast growing field of research and so far, studies suggest that eco therapy improves mood, boost self confidence, encourages peer support & reduces feeling of stress and anger.

You May Wonder...
Who is Loving Life in Wellies aimed at?
Those that want to get outside, dip their toe into a slow adventure or two, learn to use yoga as physical and mental time out, meet like minded people and enjoy a beauitful view in North Wales.
What's the story behind the name?
Before I moved to North Wales, I would visit friends for weekend adventures and arrive in unsuitable footwear. After inside jokes and too many ankle incidents, they gifted me a pair of wellies. Fun fact – I don’t own a pair of wellies. The name is more about what’s in your heart than on your feet.
Is this site for women only?
Not at all. My yoga classes and slow adventures are for everyone (some even dogs). Currently the retreats are women only but that’s due to sleeping arrangments and I am looking to change this in the future.
What makes Loving Life in Wellies different to any other health + lifestyle biz?
My own personal experience. I didn’t take to the outdoors for example although I love paddleboarding I had water phobias. I adore hiking but a flat-foot always presents a challenge. Yoga wasn’t something I loved, I felt frustrated that my body wouldn’t bend like others yet years of practice has taught me patience. I know what it’s like to be a learner and the fear we feel towards something new, and I feel I can apply that understanding to others in similar situations. I know what it’s like to feel physically and mentally bruised and exhausted from living a life of striving, people-pleasing and trying to attain material success. I also know what it’s like to live a life that’s more in align with what you actually want, rather than what you’re told and how good it feels to live a slow and simpler life full of fresh air, and I want to share that experience with others.
