Time to unwind
Today's society can be stressful. An increasing number of people are suffering from physical and mental stress-related issues, especially as more people live in cities surrounded by lights and noise. But did you know that spending time outdoors can help you destress? Research shows that nature can help us relax and feel better. Experiencing natural daylight and darkness at night helps reset your body clock (i.e., your circadian rhythm) and promotes better sleeping habits for optimal well-being. Spending just 20 minutes connecting with nature has been shown to help lower stress hormone levels.
