Why nature is so powerful for your health

Updated: Apr 4

Nature has a massive impact on your well-being. Scientific research highlights the many benefits of spending time in nature. More and more studies confirm the positive effects on both physical and mental health.



  • It reduces stress: A temporary stress response is a natural defense mechanism that can enhance survival. However, chronic stress - without sufficient recovery - leads to various health problems. Spending time in nature lowers the stress hormone cortisol and promotes faster recovery from tension and pressure.


  • Personal growth: Overcoming challenges in nature boosts self-confidence. Consider packrafting through multiple rapids - once you successfully complete the journey, it brings a sense of achievement and fulfillment.


  • It enhances focus and mental strength: Without distractions from screens and noise, your thinking becomes sharper and more creative. Regular time in green environments can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Sunlight stimulates the production of serotonin, the ‘happiness hormone,’ while outdoor exercise helps alleviate negative thoughts.


  • It strengthens your immune system: Being outdoors exposes you to bacteria and natural substances that can enhance your immune system. Even a little sunlight aids in vitamin D production.


  • It boosts energy: The combination of physical activity, fresh air, and natural surroundings provides an energy boost, improves fitness, and enhances sleep quality.
