With a focus on connecting with nature, and living simply and sustainably, friluftsliv promises huge benefits for mind and body (and the Earth!), and can be practiced anywhere. Enjoy incorporating it into your life via Swedish American writer Linda Åkeson McGurk's friendly, tip-filled guide to the concept. Just read this book, turn off your cell phone, step outside, and embrace The Open-Air Life! (CH)
