Mental Health Tips—Being in Nature 

“In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.” -John Muir 

The sun is shining, the warmth is wrapping us up, and new flowers are blooming. It is a time of beauty, discovery and renewal. Did you know that spending time outside and in nature can improve your mental state? We all spend a lot of time looking at screens, but it is so worth it to try and take a few minutes each day to step away from screens and step into nature. Research suggests that spending time in nature can lower stress, improve memory, mood, and attention, and reduce depressive/anxiety symptoms. All these things help address mental health. Here are some suggestions on how you can increase your time in nature: 

  • Study outside on nice days. Print out an article instead of reading it on your computer, take your textbooks outside. 
  • Eat a meal outside. It’s getting light enough to still see at dinner time. Grab a blanket, some friends, and food and have a picnic. 
  • Play outside. With the nicer weather, being outside is more bearable. Take up volleyball, spike ball, or bocce ball after class one day.  
  • Go to Devil’s Punch Bowl and see nature in action with the waterfall and stream.  
  • Walk on the Red Cedar State Trail.  
  • Picnic or disc golf at Wakanda Park. 
  • Walk barefoot. If nothing else, just feel the grass between your toes. At least for a minute. Put your shoes back on before walking anywhere or going to class though.
