Blue Space/Green Space: Finding Your Own Wellness
Presented by Dr. Melissa Piasecki
Do you enjoy spending time in the woods (green space), at the ocean or on a lake (blue spaces)? Do you love the smell of pines? In this session, Dr. Melissa Piasecki will dive into the good news from a wealth of scientific research that points to the specific ways that time in natural space makes us healthier, more resilient to illness and happier. We will compare the benefits of green and blue spaces and learn about the bonus features from physical and social activities in natural settings. Based on research data, we will map out ways to harness these benefits each day and long term strategies to plan for more green and blue spaces in our lives.
This series is available to NCJFCJ members free of charge. Registration will grant access to all sessions.
