There are places in every corner of our
community that offer beautiful scenery, great
opportunities for exercise and can have a
positive impact on your mental health.
Reduces Stress:
Research shows that just as little as 30 minutes in
nature can significantly reduce stress levels and
enhance your ability to be more creative.
Mood Elevation:
Natural light and fresh air can boost your mood.
Many studies have shown that exposure to natural
light can not only improve your mood but also
improve your self-esteem.
Reduces Mental Fatigue:
Being outside can give your mind a much-needed
break. Allowing yourself some time outside gives
your mind a chance to stop thinking so hard and
can rejuvenate your brain.
Helps Fight Depression & Anxiety:
Research and studies have shown that spending
time outside not only reduces the risk of becoming
depressed but also alleviates symptoms of
depression and anxiety for those who already
experience it.
Green Exercise:
A runner high is a feel-good phenomenon that oc-
curs as a result of your body releasing endorphins
during exercise such as walking, biking, or hiking.
