Spending time outdoors can positively affect mental and physical health. From improving mood to increasing activity levels, nature can nurture us.
Screen time dominates our lives. We spend more time in front of computers or other electronic devices and less time connecting with family, friends, pets and nature. Many Americans log as many as 10 hours of screen time per day. Setting down the devices and going outdoors has been linked to benefits including increased attention and reduced stress levels.
