"I go to nature to be soothed, healed and have my senses put in order.
" --John Burroughs
How Nature Helps Us Heal
"One morning last spring, I was reflecting on how good the ride outside made me feel when I walked in to see a 68-year-old patient with several significant behavioral and medical problems. Before I could say a thing, he jumped in as if in mid-conversation. "Dr. Hass, I can't thank you enough. I swear that prescription you gave me mid-COVID lockdown saved my life!"" A doctor shares more about why he prescribes time in nature to his patients.
