The great outdoors! There are countless reasons why you should spend extra time outside. Nature has many calming and peaceful characteristics. Spending time outdoors can even be very therapeutic and potentially help with anxiety, depression and PTSD. It promotes strength and endurance when hiking through trails or rock climbing. There are things in nature you don’t get to see every day. Have you ever seen the starry sky with no light pollution? Or gazed at the Colorado River as it flows at the bottom of the Grand Canyon? Your family has the opportunity to experience these things because of the sacrifices you’ve made together.
