More Nature Walk Wetails
Participants will learn about various emotions associated with the environmental exposures, including how a person’s mental health impacts their ability to care for their environments and how their environments impact their mental health.
Participants will discuss ways to bring nature into their homes to create an atmosphere of peace, and to purify the air. They will learn about global warming and ways to care for our environment for future generations to come.
Participants will be introduced to the concepts of grounding and forest bathing and their benefits on the parasympathetic nervous system. They will be able to go on nature walks on local trails and in state parks; our nature walks push the brain to release endorphins that lighten one’s mood and build positive emotions.
