ROANOKE, Va. - eTradeWire -- Julie Beckwith, founder of LivingOnThePatio and a Vinton-based landscape navigator and garden consultant, is bringing national attention to the role outdoor living spaces play in long-term wellness through a featured episode on the To Your Health podcast.

In episode #367, "Surprising Health Benefits of Outdoor Spaces," Beckwith discusses how thoughtfully designed patios, yards, and outdoor rooms can support mental clarity, stress reduction, social connection, and sustainable daily habits—especially for first-time homeowners and downsizing retirees.

"People often assume wellness starts with willpower," Beckwith said. "In reality, it starts with environment. When your outdoor space supports how you live day to day, consistency becomes easier and health becomes something you experience — not chase."

To Your Health is hosted by award-winning author, speaker, and health industry veteran Esther Avant and has released 337 episodes since launching in 2020. The podcast has been downloaded more than 130,000 times and is known for its practical, compassionate approach to health, mindset, and personal growth.
