Ever wonder why you feel so great after going for a hike? Here's one of the reasons why getting out in nature specifically when you go for a walk is beneficial to your mental health:

"Specifically, the study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, found that people who walked for 90 minutes in a natural area, as opposed to participants who walked in a high-traffic urban setting, showed decreased activity in a region of the brain associated with a key factor in depression."

Study finds that walking in nature yields measurable mental benefits and may reduce risk of depression.
