In order to strengthen good mental health, our relationship with nature has a great impact.
Nature encompasses many places. It can mean brown areas such as mountains, cliffs, blue spaces such as rivers, canals or beaches, and green areas such as forests, woodlands or parks. But! You don't have to physically be in these natural settings to get the positive benefits. Just watching documentaries on TV or pictures is enough.
Nature keeps us emotionally, psychologically and physically healthy. But we need to be connected with nature. Researchers use the term "connectedness", which means how we relate to nature and experience it. By doing activities that involve our senses, we develop our connection with nature.
