Contact with Nature Lowers Stress Hormones

Just 20 minutes of contact with nature will lower stress hormone levels, reveals new study
Date:

Frontiers in Psychology
Summary:
The data revealed that just a twenty-minute nature experience was enough to significantly reduce cortisol levels. But if you spent a little more time immersed in a nature experience, 20 to 30 minutes sitting or walking, cortisol levels dropped at their greatest rate. After that, additional de-stressing benefits continue to add up but at a slower rate.
