Journeys of the Heart

Being in nature, or even viewing scenes of nature, reduces anger, fear and stress. Breathing in nature and fresh air can raise levels of oxygen in your brain, which in turn boosts the levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that is responsible for our mood. Exposure to nature not only makes you feel better emotionally, it contributes to your overall well being. Studies have shown that after only brief exposure to nature, humans demonstrate a reduction in blood pressure, heart rate, muscle tension and a decrease in production of stress hormones.
