These days, the 20-minute park theory (理论) is a
hot topic on social media. This theory says that a 20-minute visit to
a park can help people feel better, according to the International
Journal of Environmental Health Research. Whether you exercise or
3
simply take a walk in the park, it can help you relax. Actually, it is
nature that benefits (使受益) us.
How does nature have a good influence (影响) on our body
and mind? Studies show that being outdoors, seeing trees, hearing
birds' songs, looking at the sky, and feeling in connection (联系)
with nature help to reduce people's stress (减轻人们的压力).
What can we do to connect with nature? In fact, nature is all
around us. For example, we could take up a new hobby or activity
that makes us spend more time outside, such as bird watching,
gardening, or simply going for a run or walk in the park or the
forest. Changing the way to school or work could also make a
difference. We will certainly benefit even from just walking to work
through a park or a quieter area with more trees.
Many people are making a close connection with nature. Huang
Bingbing, an office worker in Shenzhen, is one of them. There are
many community (社区) parks now. She likes visiting the small
park near her work place during her weekday lunch breaks. “On
that grass field, I could connect with living plants and animals,
making me have a fresh (清新的) mind and forget about the
stress from work for a while, ” Huang says.
