Healing Nature Photography for Care,
Comfort & Connection
My name is Nanda Bussers, a healing nature photographer. Through Earth Embrace I create images that invite calm, reflection, and a warm sense of connection. My work is rooted in the belief that nature can support emotional wellbeing and offer comfort during moments of transition, grief, stress, or quiet healing.
At Earth Embrace, I believe that nature offers a quiet space to breathe, soften, reflect, and feel supported. My healing nature photographs bring warmth, stillness, and grounding into environments where people need it most.
In care and wellbeing settings, clients and patients often seek a moment of calm, a pause in their day, a gentle place to settle, or a feeling of being held.
My images are created to support emotional safety, reflection, softness, and a deeper sense of connection with both oneself and the natural world.
If your practice or organisation works with people in transition, grief, stress, healing, or emotional complexity, my photography can help create an atmosphere of care, comfort, and quiet inspiration.
Whether you wish to transform a waiting room, enrich therapeutic work, or bring a sense of peace into shared spaces, Earth Embrace is here to support your environment and the people in it.

Bring calm, balance, and beauty into your space
In a world full of noise, speed, and overstimulation, it’s more important than ever to create spaces that allow you to breathe. Whether at home, in your workspace, or a healing environment - your surroundings directly impact how you feel.
With my Healing Nature Photography, I bring the restorative energy of the natural world indoors. These aren’t just pretty pictures - they are visual sanctuaries. Soft light, organic textures, stillness. Each image is created to evoke peace, clarity, and connection.
Why Does Nature Photography Feel So Good?
Your brain responds to nature images almost the same way it does to real nature.
Even when you’re indoors, a single photograph of a misty forest, gentle stream, or sunlit landscape can:
✅ Lower stress and anxiety
✅ Help regulate your nervous system
✅ Improve mood and emotional balance
✅ Enhance focus and creativity
✅ Support healing and recovery
Research in environmental psychology confirms what we intuitively know: nature heals. And when you can’t step outside, nature photography becomes a doorway inward—back to stillness, balance, and your true rhythm.
What Image Fits Your Space?
Art is personal. The energy of an image should resonate with you and the space it's in.
Here are a few suggestions:
🔹 Living Room – Gentle, dreamy landscapes that bring harmony and calm. Think misty woods, slow-moving rivers, or quiet snowy scenes.
🔹 Workspace – Clear, uplifting images to inspire focus and flow. For example: golden sunlight through trees, or abstract patterns in water or stone.
🔹 Meditation or Healing Room – Serene compositions that invite stillness and reflection. Still waters, soft textures, or open natural spaces.
🔹 Therapy or Wellness Practice – Soothing visuals with grounding presence. Art that helps people feel safe, welcomed, and at ease.

Why Nature Helps in Care Settings
- Nature imagery reduces stress and anxiety

- Spaces become warmer, softer, and more human
Healing starts with the environment. Your space can become a place of rest.

What others say
"Many thanks to Nanda Bussers for donating her lovely photo to Healing Photo Art! We place nature photos in hospitals around the world to bring color, comfort and smiles to patients. Nanda's snowdrops photo will do just that!"
Elaine Poggi (Founder Healing Photo Art Foundation)
"Comfort art, also known as 'Healing Nature Photography', is amazing 'touching' art. Photography art, made from the heart and soul, by Nanda Bussers. Through her work, she reflects her love for nature and humanity, which is precisely the sparkle that brings her work to Comfort Art.
Nature images and modern images made with great professional creativity and inspiration, which can deeply touch people and if necessary, besides providing comfort to the viewer, can also lead to new insights. The works are for me personally a useful tool and source of inspiration in my work as a Grief Counselor and Life Coach."
