“Time in nature…it is an essential investment in our health.”
– Richard Louv
For the Health of it!
Tennessee has 57 state parks, 85 State Natural Areas, 12 National Parks, and countless city and county parks and greenways (not to mention your own neighborhood). There are an abundance of places to take your health in to your own hands and get outside!
It has been proven that time spent in nature provides health benefits - both mental AND physical. Just 20 minutes a day of outdoor physical activity can improve your outlook and increase your health benefits. It's a win-win.
