(www.neomundo.com.ar) nature is a source of pleasure in many ways, to the point that people that take advantage of green and the landscapes are more vital than those who choose cement city.
To those conclusions came a study carried out by the University of Rochester (United States) and published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology Journal. “Nature is a fuel for the soul.” “When we are tired generally look for a rate of coffee, but our research suggests that a better way to energize us is to connect with nature”, said Richard Ryan, one of the authors.
The Green Y SUS benefit
recently conducted several investigations found that spending time in nature generates vitality, but the new study concluded that this increase in energy is independent of physical activity and the pleasant contact with other people, two activities that are generally associated with outdoor.
To check it, the authors conducted five experiments with a total of 537 students. In an experiment young people walked in the hallways of a building or a road full of trees, whereas another study noted photos of buildings or landscapes.
In another experiment the volunteers they figured in various situations, in contact with nature or away from them, and a fifth research young wrote in a newspaper as they felt at every moment of the day, by clarifying what places were and how they were doing.
In all cases, the participants said that they felt more energy when they were in the nature or when imagined it. Ryan said that 20 minutes a day on the Green were sufficient to ensure that young people improve their vitality, and stressed that this positive effect had more to do with the contact with nature than with air-free.
“People with more vitality not only have more energy to do what they want, they also recover better from any physical illness.” “One of the pathways to health could be spend more time in natural places,” he concluded Ryan.
