There is something magical about being in nature. Most people intuitively know that time spent outside in natural settings has a profoundly positive effect on their mood that is hard to put into words. Now, this feeling is supported by a wide body of scientific research which repeatedly shows the benefits to our health and wellbeing of prolonged time spent in nature. Immersion in a calm woodland setting improves mood, and reduces the levels of stress, anxiety, and anger. It also increases energy levels, strengthens the immune system, and improves cardiovascular and metabolic health.
