Get Out In Nature

No matter where you live, try to make contact with nature in the morning. Even if it’s just for a short while, spending time in nature is great for your moods. Maybe if you live in a city, you can visit a park nearby. Perhaps your balcony overlooks some greenery, and you can enjoy your breakfast out there. Take your dog for a walk along grass-lined sidewalks. Research out of Yale University shows that contact with nature can reduce stress hormones, improve self-esteem, fight anxiety and even minimize nervous system arousal, making you less reactive to upsetting stimuli. Plus, it can improve your immunity, which is a bonus during cold and flu season.
