Time spent in nature really has a wide range of mental health benefits for us from mood-boosting effects to improving our cognition, creativity, and problem solving. The research is quite clear here. Thank you WUWF and Christina Wood Andrews for highlighting this important topic and how real life experience aligns with the research findings!

From shoreline walks to bird feeders and labyrinth paths, residents are turning to green and blue spaces for mental clarity in uncertain times.
