2:38 pm
between certain global cells and nerve cells in the brain. the information is processed differently, some is even lost. the scientists tested this by giving mice to little nesting material. the mothers were then unable to build a perfect nest for their offspring. that irritated the mothers who then cared for their young less reliably. when tested once fully grown, some of the mice offspring showed impairments in the hippocampus. the region mainly in charge of learning and memory, these air molecules, this molecular fingerprint remains for many months after this stress. and these mice go on to develop a memory deficit. be clean, i now get ex nice defeats it. however, not all mice were equally affected by the cell changes. some reacted more than others to the stress. the extent to which these findings can also be transferred to humans. still has to be further investigated via hum and dashed. we looked at the
2:39 pm

2:48 pm
relaxing outdoors. and in all 3 subjects, their levels dropped, so they all felt more relaxed afterwards. and it hardly mattered what kind of a forest they were bathing in. the research has tested levels after sitting in a lush species rich forest, and one with few animal species. and one with few trees and even in the city with no nature at all. and surprisingly enough that cortisol levels drop that to in your comments of us. ok. so you could say, well, they spend 20 minutes sitting, relaxing, taking a time out. and that worked at you, but we're still surprised to see that there's no difference in this respect between the forest and the city. gives us an invite and asked about the nurse doctor. but they were significant differences in subjective feelings. the subjects all filled out a questionnaire, asking things like how did they perceive feelings of worry anger or anxiety in the city and in the forest imbibed underwriter after the forest intervention.
2:49 pm
as the subjects recorded viewers, symptoms of anxiety more positive emotion of view and negative emotions. and better concentration, subjectively speaking, so big to you. the study has another year to go. but early results already show that mindfulness enhances mental health and well being is the nearest forest too far away? are you just too busy to take time out? never mind. here are our top 5 mini anti stress tips for when you're on the go. number 5 moon water. a warm bath is super relaxing, but not always an option. even just wash your hands with warm water helps. the parasympathetic nervous system relaxes immediately. never full digital detox constant availability is exhausting. so even if it's
