Nature Is Like A “Multivitamin” – Latest Research From Ming Kuo – How Might Contact With Nature Promote Human Health?
This is just a quick post to mention the latest research on the value of nature for our physical and mental health. The research shows that getting out into nature can positively affect our immune system – among others things – and protect us from a number of different diseases, such as: depression, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, ADHD and more. The research reminded me of my own article, Life In The Fast Lane: Do You Take Time To Stand And Stare? Here is a quote from it:
“Nature offers such wonders which – if we allow ourselves to see them – breathe life into us. Nature is magical.”
It’s great to see more research – pulling together the academic work already available – which further confirms the value of getting out into nature, and the benefits of doing this for our health.
You’ll find my article – Life In The Fast Lane – on page 41 of your free ebook resource. (If you don’t have a copy of the free ebook yet, please sign-up below.)
