@pepper.steps: i mean... it's still a win in my books tbh! let's gather round for a quick sec and talk about hiking. when i was in university (for forensic psychology), i took a seminar class that largely focused on the benefits of nature. we studied the effects of walking in nature, spending time outdoors, longer form hiking, having a plant in a classroom, and heck, even LOOKING at a photo of a plant. what all of these studies reveal is probably obvious: NATURE IS GOOD. but just how good? well, one study suggests that spending time outdoors can have cognitive restoration effects, which was the most shocking thing i learned. in fact, spending time outdoors, within nature, can help your working memory, and help you perform better in cognitive tasks. EVEN JUST FOR 20 MINUTES! maybe I'll do a deep dive back into the literature world and share with you some more of the fascinating findings in a video, if you'd like? but for the meantime, know that you better get your darn booty out there. and your brain will thank you! :) happy steppin! #Hiking #meme #nature #natureisneat #hiker #hike #camping #backpacking #Outdoors #forest #naturelover #hikinglife #trees #explore #funny #foryou #reels #fyp #explore
