Study: Spending time in Nature improves mental health


City dwelling has been associated with increased levels of mental illness. A new study showed that
taking a 90 minute walk through nature improved mental health.

In the study one group took a 90 minute walk through nature, while another walked through an urban environment.

Those who walked through nature had lower levels of rumination (negative thinking)

Take a hike through nature !!
