Let me start off by saying that the following sentences are very true:<\/p>\n
Many eons ago our ancestors \u00a0were born and lived their entire lives surrounded by nature, fresh air, and greenery.<\/p>\n
Today, however, we are often cut out of nature, surrounded by concrete building, electronics and, well not being able to see much, if any green scenery for days on end. Some of us are \u00a0forced to look at nothing but buildings, concrete and or computer screens for days on end.<\/p>\n
Here are some facts\u2026 according to The University of Exeter Medical School on average, \u00a0people who move to greener urban areas had a significant improvement in mental health, suffered fewer incidences of depression and anxiety, and sustained that for at least three years.\u00a0 On the other hand, people who live in more built up urban areas suffered in many ways, from depression, anxiety, and less happy moments<\/p>\n
So\u2026 taking the time to look at and gaze into nature is proven as a good thing to do!<\/p>\n
So, \u00a0now that we have figured out Nature is AMAZING\u2026. We need to figure out as individuals how to do this!!!\u00a0 I know how hard it is to get outside without unplugging and leaving your daily routines. Believe me I do I promise, I have to force myself sometimes (shh don\u2019t tell)<\/p>\n
Luckily, this is where I can help those who are ready for a change!\u00a0 \u00a0Happy Hikers Fitness, 4-day hiking and fitness weekends in Los Angeles and Oregon are happening.
