Description

Let's get outside together! Researchers have found that there are important mental and physical health benefits to spending time outside. Anyone, but particularly someone living with the limitations of a disability, can benefit from the mood boost and other health effects of being in the fresh air. Just five minutes spent being active outside, causes significant improvements in self-esteem, mood, and depression. Studies have found that even an easy walk in a park or any natural area outdoors can reduce signs of depression in the brain. Sunlight is also proven to boost mood and reduce depression and anxiety.
