When in need for a new hobby, take a look out the window and enjoy the view. That is, if you have a nature view.
Spending time outside has impressive effect on your health and whether you decide to start hiking, hunting or camping, or anything else related to nature, is a great thing you can do for you and for your body. And if you’re still hesitating whether you should do it or not, here’s a list of effects that nature has on you. And they’re all good, trust us on that.
For instance, one research shows us how students repeated sequences of numbers back a lot more precisely after walking among some trees. Nature is able to restore memory and attention. We also have the study that shows us that people spending time for four days were able to perform better on creative problem-solving test by even 50%. Therefore, we can say there’s a strong link between creative thinking and the outdoors, even though we can’t really say that whether is the exposure to nature or the minimized exposure to technology that caused the improvement, or both.
The anxiety levels and the bad moods decrease as you walk in the forest and it seems that outdoor walks are quite a supplement to existing treatments for depressive disorder. Additionall, if there’s any water involved also, the effects are even stronger.
One study focused on draining the ability to focus of the participants. The subject took a walk in the park afterwards, whereas some walked in the city. There was also the third group that simply relaxed. Once they all came back, the results showed that subjects walking in nature performed the best on a proofreading task. There are many studies that show similar results and you only need to take a peek to nature’s view through your window to focus better. It seems that nature’s effect on attention is so strong that it may help even children with ADHD. They are able to focus better after a 20minutes walk in a park so the conclusion is clear. Spending time in the outdoors may even diminish ADHD symptoms.
The more studies are made, the stronger this conclusion gets: forest environments do have good effects on human immune function.
