Exposing yourself… to nature!!!

Have you ever had one of those days where your head is spinning and life feels like it's coming at you a million miles an hour? If so, we've got the perfect solution: take a walk in nature!

Believe it or not, taking a leisurely stroll through nature can have some extremely beneficial effects on both your mind and body. From reducing stress levels to improving concentration and creativity - there are plenty of reasons why walking in nature should become part of your regular wellness routine.

For starters, exposing yourself to natural beauty has been scientifically proven to significantly reduce stress levels. In fact, exposure to green spaces was shown to reduce cortisol (the ‘stress hormone’) by up to 27%. So if you're feeling overwhelmed by everything that's going on in your life - try taking a walk in the woods!

Walking also helps us get out into fresh air which increases our oxygen intake. This can help boost energy levels and make us more alert throughout the day. Plus, being active outdoors will often give you time away from technology which can be really helpful for unplugging from social media and switching off work emails when needed.

And last but not least, getting outside can awaken our creative side too! Many great ideas have come about while people were out enjoying walks in nature – so don't forget that pen and paper next time you hit the trails!

So there you have it - next time life gets too hectic for comfort try swapping screen-time for some much-needed me-time outdoors!
