Hello ,
Americans are swimming in a sea of depression medications that are incredibly expensive. This Covid-19 pandemic has only exacerbated these issues with so many people that I have spoken with.
Researchers at Britain's Essex University have found a much cheaper alternative with few side effects: nature. Seventy-one percent of those suffering from depression said a 30-minute walk outdoors "made them feel better about themselves." Of the 108 patients who took part in conservation projects,
went cycling, or hiked, 94 percent said the activities brought about greater mental health. Researchers are calling the new treatment ecotherapy.
"The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to Him all they had done and taught. Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, He said to them, 'Come with Me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some
rest'..."
Mark. 6:30-32
Let me encourage you to take a walk (if you are able to,) and spend some quiet time with Your God today. Find a quiet spot (preferably in God's beautiful natural surroundings,) and breath in the refreshing rest that God has prepared for
you.
Have a great day and God bless!
