Spring and summer are here — the perfect time to get outside and soak up the season. 🌞🌿

To inspire you, here’s a short clip from our interview with Dr. Melissa Lem, a physician who literally prescribes nature to her patients, exploring why nature is so good for us.

There are two psychological theories explaining nature's benefits:

🌿 Attention Restoration Theory suggests nature helps our brains recover from the constant overload of city life — traffic, screens, and noise 🚦📱. Nature offers calm, gentle stimulation that restores focus and eases mental fatigue.

🌿 Stress Reduction Theory shows that nature lowers cortisol (your stress hormone), relaxes the body, and boosts your immune system. Even the scent of pine trees or microbes in the soil can help. 🌲🌱

Nature isn’t just a break — it’s medicine. 🍃
