Researchers are attempting to quantify how much time spent in nature (not just outside) leads to better health and mental well-being. While it may seem like common sense that connecting with nature has benefits, putting a minimum time limit on it is helpful for guiding who need to schedule it into their work week.
Across all types of people, 2 hours was the magic number—but it could be broken up throughout the week. While other studies have found that living in a neighborhood with more greenery is beneficial, for the benefits in the study your yard or a park aren’t enough. By nature the researchers were looking at openspaces and other untamed land.
You can multitask: read a book, do some exercise, or bring a project to help make the time to connect with nature. You don’t have to be meditating, performing yoga on a cliff, or climbing trees. All it takes is a walk with a friend, some time in a national park, or making a trip through your local openspace while you’re out running errands.
