Yes, midterms are just ending. Now is the time to regroup. 

Take some time to go outside and refresh yourself. In Colorado it is finally starting to feel a little cooler. 

Outdoor activities stimulate creativity, be it a brisk walk, a hike, or even just sitting in the sun. Spending enough time outdoors, with more frequent exposure to sunlight, enables the body to synthesize Vitamin D, a nutrient that is beneficial for healthy bones and a sound immune system.

Beyond the physical, spending time outdoors has deep implications for mental well-being. In an age of high stress, anxiety, and mental fatigue, nature stands as an antidote.

Take some time for yourself and breathe.
