May brings us warmer weather, budding flowers and trees, and Mental Health Awareness Month.
Now is the perfect time to rediscover Ohio and take advantage of the restorative benefits our great outdoor spaces provide us. There’s no waiting, no appointment needed, and no prescription required. The refills are endless.
The healing benefits of time spent in nature are well documented for people of all ages and ethnicities, as are the reasons green spaces and access to parks are so important to all our communities. Not only beneficial for our physical health, evidence abounds that spending just 15 minutes outdoors also lowers stress, improves our mood, and enhances our sense of well-being.
