Spending time in nature will make you healthier and more compassionate

Do you feel happier when looking at the tree outside your window?  The recognized benefits of spending time around nature have included stress reduction and improved healing.  A new study published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin has identified that people also become more caring. If you appreciate the flowers and trees while walking on your lunchbreak, you will improve your health and your co-workers may appreciate the kinder, gentler you that returns. 

Here in Greenville, SC we are fortunate to have Falls Park in the downtown area.  Check out the Garden Tour with gardens available year round.
You can also benefit from looking at pictures of nature. Follow this link to download the free Wildlife Habitat Screensaver from the National Wildlife Federation.
