Nature Week: Restorative music walking the King Charles III Coast Path

Classical Unwind

Available for 28 days

Calming classical music to help you focus and set you up for the day ahead. Presented by broadcaster, author and counselling psychologist Dr Sian Williams from the King Charles III Coast Path. Classical Unwind gets its walking boots on as Sian Williams and her dog Molly take the programme onto the King Charles III Coastal Path in East Sussex. Walking from Winchelsea towards Rye and Camber Sands, Sian explores how walking beside the sea can help lower stress, lift mood and clear a busy mind, while Professor Catherine Loveday reveals why an early morning walk can help reset the body clock as the seasons change. Featuring beautiful, enriching melodies from Gerhswin, Mendelssohn and Grace Williams, and a chance to Find your Focus in music where pianist Olivia Belli reworks a Vivaldi classic.
