Today's natural Health prescription
Nature nurtures mental health
The American Psychological Association has reported on how time spent in nature can nurture mental health. There are cognitive benefits along with improvements in mood, mental health and emotional well-being when time is spent in nature. Feeling connected to nature also has a positive impact on your mental health and so images of nature can be helpful. Green spaces and blue spaces, which are aquatic environments, are associated with positive mental health outcomes. Very remote and biodiverse spaces may be particularly helpful. And yet because of our increasing attachment to technology and trends towards urban living many people are spending less time outdoors and this is not a good trend. Exposure to nature is associated with lower stress, better mood, improved attention, lower risk of being diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, improved memory, and increased empathy. And there are existential benefits to spending time in nature with human existence itself taking on more meaning. So try to spend time in nature daily. Any exposure to nature is helpful but I suggest trying to find at least 30 minutes a day to spend in nature. And to really refresh your sense of wellbeing I suggest a minium of a two week vacation in the mountains, by a lake or by the ocean. And if you take this advice don't just sit inside and look out the window. Get up and out and be active with long walks, hiking, skate boarding, surfing, snorkeling, diving, swimming or riding a bike. American Psychological Association
