Wellbeing Experiences
"I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees." - Henry David Thoreau
Modern research confirms what we instinctively know - spending time in nature helps us relax and feel good. We’re wired to thrive when we walk along soft forest trails, collect shells on the beach, or simply breathe in the open horizon. Studies show that time in nature lowers blood pressure, heart rate, and stress; enhances mood and immune function; improves sleep; and boosts creativity.
The biophilia theory, proposed by biologist E. O. Wilson, suggests that our deep connection with nature is rooted in evolution. Our senses and body rhythms are naturally attuned to the natural world, which provides the sounds, sights, and smells that help us feel calm and at ease. In essence, nature is our “happy place,” offering us the perfect environment to recharge and rejuvenate.
