How Nature Heals

Turns out, fresh air and green space aren't just refreshing. They're genuinely healing. Research shows that spending time in nature can lower blood pressure, reduce anxiety, improve focus, and even speed up physical recovery.

In one study, hospital patients with views of trees healed faaster than those facing a wall. Another found that just 20 minutes in a park lowered cortisol, the stress hormone. Whether it's walking in the woods, gardening, or simply sitting under a tree, these moments help reset our nervous systems and quiet mental noise.

You don't need a forest to feel the benefits. Any nearbu green space counts. A daily walk, a few minutes tending to plants, oe even listening to birdsong can offer relief. Nature doesn't just give us beauty and ozygen. It meets us where we are and helps us heal, one breath at a time.

Maybe this is why the olive grove makes for relaxing peaceful photo shoots.
