From Screen Time to Green Time: The Health Benefits of Nature

View descriptionShare

Most of us are familiar with “screen time,” the hours we spend on electronic devices, but what about “green time,” the moments we spend outdoors? While managing screen time is important, maximizing green time is equally vital for our health. Pediatricians Pooja S. Tandon, MD, and Danette Glassy, MD, FAAP, co-authors of Digging Into Nature: Outdoor Adventures for Happier and Healthier Kids, share how time in nature can transform wellbeing. From improving mood and mental health to reducing stress, boosting immunity, and supporting physical fitness, they explain how stepping outside can lead to a healthier, happier life for our children and ourselves.
