What mother nature can do for you
Decades of studies confirm that exposure to nature—even in images—positively affects our physical and mental state. Some psychologists theorize that we’re genetically conditioned to need a connection to nature. Others say that it releases our minds from brain-draining functions. Still others think nature helps us connect to something beyond ourselves. Whatever the reason, the positive side effects are far-reaching and potent.
