“A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another.” » Buddha The quote is not just enough to explain the word Family,but spend some time with them outside of your house, in the lap of nature will surely give you the better answer .
As per the Researchers from the University Of Illinois College Of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences have looked at the benefits of spending time in nature as a family, and theories that families who regularly get outside together tend to function better.
Dina Izenstark, a doctoral candidate in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies said, “When your attention is restored, you’re able to pick up on social cues more easily, you feel less irritable, and you have more self-control. All of these are variables that can help you get along better with others,”
Ebata added that many different types of leisure activities are associated with a variety of families’ functioning outcomes.
He further explains that, “The study proposes that activities in nature have the potential to have greater positive outcomes than other leisure contexts. Leisure activities are one of the few contexts where families spend time together”.
“We want to encourage families, even if you only have 20 minutes to spend together and you want to maximise the benefit of that time for your family, go take a walk in nature together,” Ebata said.
So,plan and make a long trip with your lovable family.
