Connecting with nature as part of a healthy life
Ever wonder why the world just feels better on a sunny day — or even a rainy day for that matter— when you’re outside? Or why those ‘lightbulb moments’ always seem to happen when you’re just watching the clouds go by? Everyone from Indigenous Elders to behavioural psychologists are providing proof that time in nature, or ‘Vitamin N’ as we like to call it, helps us think and feel better. Join CPAWS Southern Alberta for a dose of nature play, awe, and wonder, and let Mother Nature convince you herself!
