10 REASONS WHY BEING IN NATURE IS GOOD FOR YOU
1. Improved memory
Study finds that short-term memory is improved 20% by walking in nature, or even just by looking at an image of a natural scene.

2. Feeling happier
A study found that people began to feel psychologically restored after just 15 minutes of sitting outside in both the park and forest. Those results were even faster when they spent that time walking.

3. Natural healing
One study shows that people exposed to more natural light healed faster from spinal surgery and reportedly had less pain than others. It seems nature served as a natural drug for them because they also took fewer pain medications.

5. It prompts weight loss
This should be a given but many don't know that increase in altitude can contribute to weight loss. Spending time at higher altitudes can contribute to an increase in metabolism and lowering of appetite.

6. Vitamin D supply improves
Spending time in the sun helps your body create vitamin D—a vitamin that studies have shown may help prevent cancer, osteoporosis, and heart attacks.

7. May reduce stress and depression
Looking for a simple way to help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression, and maybe even improve your memory? Take a walk in the woods.

8. Aging gracefully?
One study showed 70-year-old participants who spent time outside every single day had fewer complaints of common aging pains (e.g., aching bones, not sleeping) at age 77 than those who didn’t.

9. It strengthens the immune system
A Japanese study showed women who spent six hours in the woods over a two-day period increased their white blood cells, which fight viruses, and the boost lasted about a week after the experiment.

10. Nature limits screen time
It's almost hypocritical for a YouTuber to lecture people on their screen time. In this evolving world, it is getting harder to go a day without looking at a screen. This is why is important as ever to find time to get away from the monitor and step outside. For mental and physical health reasons.
