This summer, instead of screen time, wouldn’t it be great to find some activities to help the kids appreciate nature?  It can be tough to keep the kids busy, especially if you do not have the luxury of summer camp.

Nature-Based Activities Help Mental Health

Studies have shown that taking part in nature-based activities helps people who are suffering from mental ill-health. In addition, nature-based activities can contribute to a reduction in levels of anxiety, stress, and depression.

In fact, a daily walk in nature has showed decreased activity in a region of the brain associated with a key factor in depression.

According to estimates, one in four people will experience bouts of mental ill health and it’s on the rise. Prescription medication of antidepressants are also at a record high level and the demand for more invasive treatments are also on the rise.

Health and social care commissioners are examining and commissioning different options for cost effective services for mental health and one of these options is a daily walk of 90 minutes or more. We need to learn from the past when kids got excited to spend their time climbing trees and building dens rather than spending hours inside.
