I soaked all the Vitamin D I could, breathed deeply, relaxed a bit and enjoyed the great outdoors’ set-up this morning. I recently heard the benefits of being outdoors surrounded by shrubs, trees, and flowers. Who knew? I was blown away! I definitely need an umbrella in our new outdoor patio so I can use my laptop some days.
At the Longevity Fest 2024, Dr. Melissa Sundermann, also known as “The Doctor Outdoors,” shared her insights: “When you’re surrounded by trees, they release plant cital compounds, which are organic volatile compounds we breathe in. These natural chemicals, like phytoncides, boost natural killer (NK) cells, reduce inflammation, improve focus, and leave us feeling refreshed and energized.”
I’m all for it, how about you?
