When someone tells you to "take a hike" it is truly in your best interest to do so. Even if the termperature has dropped below freezing in winter you will still benefit more from getting outdoors and being with nature for a while than staying warm inside, working in your cubicle. Interacting with nature can have similar effects as meditating, according to psychology researchers. A new study shows how the city hurts your brain and how a walk in nature can restore it. That simple walk in the park can improve memory,attention and self-control. A really good article on the research is on Ethic Soup blog at: http://www.ethicsoup.com/2009/01/the-art-my-backyardis-by-artist-leung-grace-a-talented-texas-second-grader.html#more Sharon McEachern Nature's architects -- and just nature period -- is restorative for your brain.
