There is no doubt that Mother Nature has been generous enough to give us countless gifts of everything we need to survive. Meanwhile, the blessings, such as stunning landscapes and adorable animals that melt our hearts, are undeniable.
As modern humans, we sometimes get stuck in the fast pace of our urban lifestyle, and it becomes difficult or even impossible for us to notice the beauty around us.
However, we can still admire the amazing things outside of our homes thanks to the fantastic photos and people who capture and share the beauty.
In this section of Shutter, by collecting inspiring and fascinating images of nature, we intend to open your eyes to the beauty of nature and remind you how far you have been from your heart and how much you need to return to it.

Remember your childhood days when you would go out to play with your friends? At that time, finding the most exciting animals around you, such as strange-looking frogs or unusual and colorful insects, seemed like an adventure every day. Unfortunately, nowadays it seems that people all over the world spend most of their time indoors. In life, there are many things to be grateful for.

A study of almost 12,000 children and adults found that people have lost touch with nature. Since overwhelming evidence shows that humans’ physical, psychological, and social well-being depends on contact with nature, this issue will create a severe problem worldwide. Most respondents in the study said they had more important matters to worry about than spending time in nature. Although they spent little time outdoors, they were satisfied with the same amount.
One of the reasons for this is that people focus on things like time, work, or money. Middle-aged people worry that younger generations are too reliant on electronic media, ignorant of how the natural world works, and unfamiliar with the simple joys of being outdoors.
S Among these reasons, we should not forget new technologies that distract us and fascinate us. Strange and beautiful and rare agate from the crater of Patagonia, which can only be found in Argentina.
Another 2018 report found that less than half of the US population did not participate in outdoor recreation. Only 17.9% of this population went out at least once a week.
What is worrying is the outdoor activity among young people. The report states: “In 2018, children had nearly 15% less annual turnover than in 2012.” This reduction will affect their physical activity in the future; Because it has been shown that adults who were active outside the home as children were twice as likely to be involved as adults.

The good news is that reconnecting with nature is not difficult. Just spending a few hours a week in nature can impact your health. In one study, researchers surveyed more than 19,000 people in the UK and examined the relationship between leisure time spent in nature in the past week and self-reported health and well-being. The results showed that compared to not having contact with nature in the last week, people who go outside for at least 120 minutes have better health or more well-being.
This pattern was across all age groups, even the elderly or those with long-term health problems. According to the researchers, it did not matter how these 120 minutes of contact with nature per week were obtained and through what activity. The benefits of a long walk in the woods or just a short walk in the local park are similar to how people feel after exercising.

Being constantly bombarded with a vast amount of information or being tired or overworked can lead to burnout. Being outdoors helps you regain focus and have more creative and clear thoughts. Taking a few hours a week to appreciate Mother Nature will make you healthier and more creative.

Three researchers from the University of Utah showed that mountain climbers saw a 50 percent increase in creativity and problem-solving performance after just four days outdoors. The results show that if we spend time in the natural environment, we will notice cognitive benefits such as improving brain function, including memory, learning, creating abstract concepts, problem-solving, and decision-making.
This advantage is predicted to arise from increased exposure to natural stimuli and a corresponding decrease in exposure to technologies that regularly require attention.

If you’re not a fan of hiking or camping, there are other ways you can boost your mental and physical health. A new trend is emerging in Japan called shinrin-yoku, meaning “forest bathing,” a physiological and psychological experience in nature. The purpose of the forest bath includes two aspects: 1. providing an environmental antidote to the exhaustion caused by the very rapid changes in the field of technology; 2. Inspiring residents to reconnect with and protect the nation’s forests.

To enjoy the benefits of spending time in nature, you don’t have to be a nature lover; Rather, try to pay attention to your surroundings while walking. Reconnecting with the outside world reduces anxiety and stress and profoundly affects mood and creativity.
