Nature-charged. Why it’s good to get outside

What if I told you that there’s a free, low-risk, quick, and easy way to reduce stress, feel more creative, and improve productivity, among other benefits? A new drug? No, nature!

Scientific studies have shown that getting into nature can have material benefits. One of the best ways to improve work performance is to bring a bit of nature inside, take work outside, or enjoy a break outdoors.

Stopping to smell the roses, sitting in a park for lunch, or taking a walking meeting with a colleague has the opportunity to reshape your work days for the better.
