Why Nature Calms Us: The Explanation from the Realitatea Medicală Programme

In a new episode of the programme "Realitatea Medicală", Nicole Păcuraru discussed why contact with nature helps us feel calmer and more balanced.

According to the explanations presented, being in nature reduces exposure to artificial stimuli, providing the brain with a more balanced environment. Natural sounds, colours, and the movement characteristic of natural settings have a calming effect on the body.

Studies cited during the programme show that time spent in nature can reduce stress and contribute to a better mood.

An important point mentioned is that a lengthy outing is not necessary to feel the benefits: even a few minutes spent outdoors can make a difference, and a simple walk through a park may be sufficient.

The programme concluded that the human body recognises nature and responds positively to it, regardless of the duration of exposure.
