The Nature Prescription 🌍 Earth Day!

The call of the great outdoors offers adventures every day and a connection to something much bigger than us. If you're pondering how to nurture this love of nature in your family, you're not alone.

Research shows that it is important to get out into nature every day. Nature has the power to boost our moods, destress us, and make us kinder. Today's tech-filled world can make the desire to unplug and appreciate the environment more challenging, but also more vital.

Appreciating nature is more than a state of mind; it's a lifestyle. It is a process to ensure that the way you live aligns with the lessons you hope to impart. Here are some simple ways to reconnect and prioritize nature this spring. Show your family, by example, the simple pleasures of the great outdoors.

Plant Something! There's nothing quite like growing a plant from a seed and witnessing the progress along the way. Whether you have a garden or just a pot on the windowsill, this hands-on experience deepens your appreciation for the natural world and our role in its preservation.

Take a hike! A simple hike can lead to profound experiences. It's not just about the destination; the hike itself is an opportunity for discovery and adventure. Plan for frequent stops to examine plants, insects, rocks, and wildlife. Make it a learning expedition by bringing guidebooks and journal about what you encounter.

Create a Nature Journal. A keepsake that captures the beauty of your outdoor adventures. Take time to draw and write about your experiences. Over time, the journal becomes a story of growth and discovery.

Volunteering as a family connects everyone with their community and the environment. Look for organizations that clean up local parks or restore habitats.
