Have you
ever been pleasantly surprised when you wandered into the woods and found trilliums
and woodland lilies growing in the understory? Or felt tensions fade
as you cross-country skied through an evergreen forest during the winter? There
is increasing scientific evidence that frequent visits to natural areas makes
us happier and healthier, even when those visits are brief. A walking trail,
woodland flower gardens, or a wildlife viewing point can be developed on less
than an acre, so whether quiet beauty or vigorous exercise is your preference,
you can create a stress free zone
right outside your back door.
